Aqueous humor
-
Vitreous humor
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The jellylike fluid behind the lens in the posterior chamber of the eye is called the vitreous humor. This clear, gel-like substance helps to maintain the shape of the eye and provides support to the retina and other structures within the eye. It also helps to transmit light to the retina, allowing for clear vision. The vitreous humor is composed mainly of water, collagen fibers, and other substances, and it is not replaced or replenished as frequently as other fluids in the body.
