Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An implant (11) is placed within Schlemm's canal of the eye and provides tension to the trabecular meshwork. The tension (12) is continuous and increases the aqueous outflow without the necessity of administering cholinergic drugs to treat glaucoma. Cette invention concerne un implant qui est placé dans le canal de Schlemm et qui applique une tension sur le trabéculum cornéoscléral. La tension est continue et augmente l'écoulement aqueux sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'administrer des médicaments cholinergiques pour traiter le glaucome.
