Objective To prepare a new glycoproteinopticin specific antibody and to explore the distribution of opticin in human eye. Methods Firstly, take the opticin specific antibody to compound a synthetic peptide chain（CLPRLPIGRFT）, and then get the opticin antibody. To verify the availability of antibody through the western blot for human vitreous extract, to test the distribution of opticin in human eye by immunohistochemistry. Results Through the western blot for human vitreous extract, we can see a band with wild range at molecular weight 45times;103~50 times;103. We find that opticin exact in retina, vitreous and non-pigmented epithelium of ciliary body which distributes along the collagen fibrils in vitreous. Conclusion The availability of the antibody was confirmed by western blot. Opticin are mainly in retina, vitreous and nonpigmented epithelium of ciliary body. Opticin distributes along the collagen fibrils which may be related to the stability of vitreous. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2008，24：286-288）
