Anterior Chamber of Right Eyeball (Camera anterior bulbi oculi dexter)
Educational content only — not medical advice.
Anatomy
The anterior chamber of the right eyeball is the aqueous-filled space bounded anteriorly by the posterior surface of the cornea and posteriorly by the iris and central pupillary portion of the lens. Aqueous humor flows into it from the posterior chamber through the pupil and drains via the trabecular meshwork in the iridocorneal angle into the canal of Schlemm.
Clinical notes
Hyphema is the accumulation of blood within the anterior chamber following blunt ocular trauma, risking secondary glaucoma and corneal blood staining.
