We measured the oxygen (O2) consumption of isolated blowfly eyes using a magnetic diver balance, a device for high-resolution volumetric O2 consumption measurements. The light-induced O2 consumption is at most three times the value of the dark consumption, which is 0.6 nl O2 s-1 eye-1, and is in good agreement with the estimates based on electrophy...
