What fluid provides nutrients for the lens and posterior cornea and maintains intraocular pressure?

Aqueous humor is the clear fluid that fills the space in the eye between the cornea and the lens, specifically within the anterior and posterior chambers. It plays a critical role in maintaining intraocular pressure, which is essential for the eye's shape and overall health. This fluid also provides nutrients to the avascular structures of the eye, including the lens and the posterior corneal surface. The production and drainage of aqueous humor are vital for maintaining the proper pressure inside the eye, thus preventing conditions such as glaucoma.

The other fluids mentioned do not serve the same purpose. For instance, vitreous humor is located in the larger cavity behind the lens and plays a role in maintaining the shape of the eye but does not provide nutrients in the same way that aqueous humor does. The terms "hydrogen humor" and "lipid humor" are not recognized terms in this anatomical context, which emphasizes the importance of aqueous humor in ocular health.
