Schlemm's canal, also known as canal of Schlemm or the scleral venous sinus, is a circular channel in the
eye that collects
aqueous humor from the
anterior chamber and delivers it into the bloodstream.The canal is essentially an endothelium-lined tube, resembling that of a lymphatic vessel. On the inside of the canal, nearest to the aqueous humor, it is covered by the
trabecular meshwork, this region makes the greatest contribution to outflow resistance of the aqueous humor. Named after
Friedrich Schlemm (1795-1858), a German anatomist.
