Orbital cavity (eye socket) - Structure of the Eye
The orbital cavity (eye socket) is lined by the periosteum (periorbita) (C26) and is filled with fatty tissue.
Orbit
The orbital cavity (eye socket) is lined by the periosteum (periorbita) (C26) and is filled with fatty tissue, the orbital fat body (C27), in which the eyeball (C28), the optic nerve (C29), and the eye muscles (C30) are embedded. At the anterior margin of the orbit, the fatty tissue is demarcated by the orbital septum (BC31). The fatty tissue is separated from the eyeball by a connective tissue capsule, the bulbar sheath (C32), which encloses the sclera (C33).
C34 Choroidea.
C35 Osseous wall of the orbit.
