Figure 5. Gender and lens growth

Human lens wet weights for 138 adult male (green filled circles) and 64 adult female (blue filled circles) lenses. Best fits of the data were obtained with Wet weight=1.35Ab + 145 (R2=0.73) for males and 1.34Ab +146 (R2=0.72) for females. The line of best fit obtained with all postnatal lenses (Wet weight=1.38Ab + 149; Figure 3B) is included for comparison.
