A shunt having a conduit sized to fit within Schlemm's canal, the conduit having an inlet intermediate a proximal end and a distal end and a Venturi feature arranged within the conduit so as to control flow from the inlet into the conduit. The shunt may include a pressure sensor capable of measuring pressure within an eye, coupled to the Venturi feature, the Venturi feature being configured to control flow from the inlet into the conduit in response to a pressure measurement from the sensor. Also, the pressure sensor may be coupled to a pump that is adapted to control flow from the inlet into the conduit in response to a pressure measurement from the sensor.
