    Study Notes

    Orbital Structure

    • The floor of the orbit is formed by the maxilla bone.
    • The optic foramen is located posteromedially and contains the optic nerve and ophthalmic artery.

    Orbital Walls

    • The medial wall of the orbit is formed by the lacrimal bone and the frontal process of the maxilla bone.

    Eye Components

    • The sclera of the eye is covered by the conjunctiva.

    Lacrimal System

    • The fossa for the lacrimal sac is located in the medial wall of the orbit and contains the lacrimal sac.

    Joint Types

    • Synarthroses are joints that permit little movement.
    • Fibrous synarthroses are joints where the bones are joined by fibrous tissue.
    • An example of cartilaginous synarthroses is the joint between the ribs and the sternum.
    • Diarthroses are joints that permit a wide range of movement.
    • Bony fusion articulation is a type of joint where the bones are fused together, resulting in the loss of movement.
