The supratrochlear artery (or frontal artery) is one of the terminal branches of the ophthalmic artery. It arises within the orbit. [1] [2] It exits the orbit alongside the supratrochlear nerve. It contributes arterial supply to the skin, muscles and pericranium of the forehead. [3]
The supratrochlear nerve passes medially [3] above the trochlea of the superior oblique muscle. [2] [3] It then travels anteriorly above the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. [1] It exits the orbit through the supratrochlear notch or foramen. [3] It then ascends onto the forehead beneath the corrugator supercilii muscle and frontalis muscle ...

The frontal vein (supratrochlear vein) begins on the forehead in a venous plexus which communicates with the frontal branches of the superficial temporal vein.The veins converge to form a single trunk, which runs downward near the middle line of the forehead parallel with the vein of the opposite side.
The ciliary arteries are divisible into three groups, the long posterior, short posterior, and the anterior. The short posterior ciliary arteries from six to twelve in number, arise from the ophthalmic artery as it crosses the optic nerve .
