Hyaloid canal (Cloquet’s canal and Stilling’s canal.) is a small transparent canal running through the vitreous body from the optical nerve disc to the lens. It is formed by an invagination of the hyaloid a membrane which encloses the vitreous body. In the fetus the hyaloid canal contains a prolongation of the central artery of the retina the hyaloid artery which supplies blood to the developing lens.
