Abstract
In the rabbit, a sensory stimulus of low intensity evokes a characteristic transient intraocular rise in pressure with an amplitude as great as 10 millimeters of mercury. This α- adrenergically mediated phenomenon occurs concomitantly with a general arousal response and appears to be caused by contraction of the orbital smooth muscle of Müller.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
