Fibrinolytic activity of aqueous humor was tested by the Astrup fibrin plate lysis technique in 7 patients who had chronic simple glaucoma and was compared with a control group of 7 patients with senile cataract. The plasminogen activator content of aqueous humour in glaucoma patients was remarkably reduced; it was not desmonstrable in as many as six out of seven patients. The lysis zones in the control group ranged from 110 to 900mm^2 with an average of 423mm^2. The want of aqueous fibrinolytic activity may have a pathogenetic implication for galucoma since deposition of fibrin in the angle of the eye to depressed fibronolytic activity could increase resistance to aqueous flow.
