Final answer:
Excessive eye fluid can increase pressure on the optic nerve, potentially leading to glaucoma, which is caused by a buildup of intraocular pressure.
The Correct Option is; B) The optic nerve.
Step-by-step explanation:
Excessive eye fluid can increase pressure on the optic nerve. The shape of the eye is maintained by intraocular pressure, which is normally between 12.0 to 24.0 mm Hg. When the circulation of this fluid is blocked, it can result in a buildup of pressure leading to a condition known as glaucoma.
Unlike the eye, other pressures in the body include spinal and skull pressures, bladder pressure, and pressures in the skeletal system, but these are not affected by intraocular pressure.
Excessive eye fluid can increase pressure on the optic nerve, potentially leading to glaucoma, which is caused by a buildup of intraocular pressure.
