That is not an idiom. It means just what it says. You need a medical dictionary to look up medical conditions, not an idiom dictionary.
I think by idiom, you may be asking what type of language is represented by the phrase "inflammation of nictitating membrane." That phrase is typical of medical or scientific terminology rather than common or lay language.
