    Glaucoma

    Diagrammatic cross section of the anterior segment of the normal eye, showing the site of aqueous production (ciliary body), sites of conventional aqueous outflow (trabecular meshwork–Schlemm canal system and episcleral venous plexus), and the uveoscleral outflow pathway (green arrow). Small white arrow shows normal path of outflow and indicates that resistance in this illustration is relative, not total.
