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.
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 two veins are joined, at the root of the nose, by a transverse branch, called the nasal arch , which receives some small veins from the dorsum of the nose.
Deleted erroneous label to external pudendal vein. Deleted inferior thyroid vein (Since there are many other veins on the anterior face of the neck of equal importance). Redraw last intercostal veins. Add temporal vein (not labelled). Correct position of superior and inferior epigastric veins. Corrections of arrows of external iliac vein.
The superficial temporal vein is a vein of the side of the head which collects venous blood from the region of the temple. [ 1 ] : 355 It arises from an anastomosing venous plexus on the side and top of the head.

The facial vein (or anterior facial vein) is a relatively large vein in the human face. It commences at the side of the root of the nose and is a direct continuation of the angular vein where it also receives a small nasal branch. It lies behind the facial artery and follows a less tortuous course.
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.
