Fibrin clots were induced in eyes of dogs by injection of autogenous citrated plasma into the anterior chamber. Twenty-four hours after clot formation, 0.01 ml of tissue plasminogen activator at a concentration of 1 microgram/100 microliters (group 1, n = 5) or 25 micrograms/100 microliters (group 2, n = 5) was injected into 1 anterior chamber of each dog. The contralateral eye served as a nontreated control. Serial photographs were taken of the fibrin clots after intracameral injection of tissue plasminogen activator. Computerized morphometric analysis was then used to evaluate changes in cross-sectional surface area of the fibrin clot. Significant (P less than 0.001) fibrin-clot lysis was detected in treated eyes of group-2 dogs, but was not found in treated eyes of group-1 dogs. A mean decrease of greater than 90% in clot surface area was detected by 120 minutes after injection in treated eyes of group-2 dogs.
