  2. Supraorbital artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraorbital_artery

    The supraorbital artery is a branch of the ophthalmic artery. It passes anteriorly within the orbit to exit the orbit through the supraorbital foramen or notch alongside the supraorbital nerve , splitting into two terminal branches which go on to form anastomoses with arteries of the head.

  3. Superior ophthalmic vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_ophthalmic_vein

    The superior ophthalmic vein is the only orbital vein whose course generally parallels the course of an orbital artery: it has a similar course as the ophthalmic artery [1] (however, the latter instead exits the orbit through the optic canal). [2] Within the orbit, the superior ophthalmic vein passes posterior-ward alongside the ophthalmic artery.

  4. Ophthalmic artery - Wikipedia

    The ophthalmic artery (OA) is an artery of the head. It is the first branch of the internal carotid artery distal to the carotid sinus . Branches of the ophthalmic artery supply all the structures in the orbit around the eye , as well as some structures in the nose , face , and meninges .

  6. Supraorbital vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraorbital_vein

    The supraorbital vein is a vein of the forehead. It communicates with the frontal branch of the superficial temporal vein. It passes through the supraorbital notch, and merges with the angular vein to form the superior ophthalmic vein. The supraorbital vein helps to drain blood from the forehead, eyebrow, and upper eyelid.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_posterior_ciliary...

    The short posterior ciliary arteries contribute arterial supply to the choroid, ciliary processes, [3] optic disc, the outer retina, and Bruch's membrane. [1]Some branches of the short posterior ciliary arteries supply the optic disc by means of an anastomotic ring - the circle of Zinn-Haller or circle of Zinn - which is associated with the fibrous extension of the ocular tendons (common ...
