Hey everyone,
I remember that there was some great pneumonic for the anatomical structures of the angle, that residents used when doing gonio. I just wish I could remember what it is. I'll come up with a new one, possibly dirty, if no one can help out here. But if you know one, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

The last S should be Schwalbe's line, not Schlemm's Canal.

And it's mnemonic; pneumonic sounds kinda infectious.
