What are the names of the bones in the orbital cavity?
Palantine, Lacrimal,Zygomatic, Maxillary, Ethmoid, Sphenoid and Frontal
How many bones are there altogether in the Orbital Cavity?
11
Which bones are shared between the orbits?
Ethmoid, Sphenoid, and Frontal, That is why there is only 1 of them.
What is the numerical number of the bones that make up the orbital cavity?
7
Which two bones compose the roof of the orbital cavity?
The anterior portion of Frontal bone
The posterior portion of Lesser wing of the Sphenoid bone
What are the three landmark structures for the roof?
Lacrimal Fossa
Supra-Orbital notch
Trochlear fossa
Where is the lacrimal fossa found?
Anterior-lateral angle.
What passes through the supra-orbital notch?
Supraorbital nerve
Supraorbital artery
What interrupts the superior orbital margin?
Supra-orbital notch
What is situated close to the anterior-medial angle?
The trochlear fossa.
What makes up the lateral wall of the orbita
Anteriorly: Zygomatic bones
Posteriorly: Greater wing of Sphenoid
When he says to know what is inside of circle and what is outside???
Double check
What are located inside the circle of the Lateral wall?
CN 3, CN 6
Ophthalmic artery
What are located outside the circle of the Lateral wall?
Nerves
Veins (superior ophthalmicvein)
CN 4
What makes up the floor of the orbital cavity?
Zygomatic(anterior-lateral)
Palantine(just posterior to the maxilla)
Maxillary(large central area)
What is the purpose of the inferior orbital fissure?
Separation of the posterior section of lateral wall and floor
What bones are involved in the inferior orbital fissure?

What is significant about the medial wall of the orbit?
Thinnest of the walls
Translucent in nature
What are the four bones that compose the Medial wall?
Maxillae(forms the frontal process)
Lacrimal(Anteriorly and slight inferiorly)
Ethmoid(central)
Sphenoid(small part of opsterior portion wall)
