## Abstract Astrocytes in the lamina cribrosa of the adult rat optic nerve which is devoid of myelination were investigated by means of quantitative freeze‐fracturing. The orthogonal arrays of particles (OAPs) were found to be less concentrated in the membranes of subpial endfeet when compared to t
