98DUKE-ELDER & GLOSTER (51) (System of Ophthalmology, 1968; Vol. IV; S. 106) würdigte Seidel wie folgt: „ … In Heidelberg, under the influence of Theodor Leber, then a Professor emeritus, he became deeply involved during the decade following 1918 in the study of the origin of the intra-ocular fluid and glaucoma. To both of these subjects he made classical contributions which brought him the von Graefe Prize in 1925. After a long series of elaborate physico-chemical and physiological investigations detailed in 24 major papers, he concluded that Leber had been in error and that the aqueous humour was a secretion. His studies on glaucoma were equally outstanding. He was among the first to divide primary glaucoma into two fundamental types, one with a shallow and one with a deep anterior chamber (now frequently known as closed- and open-angled glaucoma) and attributed the obstruction in the latter to an acquired impermeability of the endothelium of Schlemm’s canal; and he will always be eponymously remembered for his original clinical description of the sickle-shaped scotoma (Seidel’s scotoma) extending upwards or downwards along the same isopter as the blind –spot“.
