Usage examples of "schlemm".

This duct is called the canal of Schlemm after the German anatomist Friedrich Schlemm, who described it in 1830.

If the canal of Schlemm is for any reason narrowed or plugged through fibrous ingrowths or inflammation, infection, or the gathering of debris the aqueous humor cannot escape rapidly enough and the internal pressure begins to rise.
