	Ophthalmic nerve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nerves of the orbit, and the ciliary ganglion.
		The ophthalmic nerve is one of the three branches of the trigeminal nerve, the fifth cranial nerve.
		The ophthalmic nerve is joined by filaments from the cavernous plexus of the sympathetic, and communicates with the oculomotor, trochlear, and abducent nerves; it gives off a recurrent filament which passes between the layers of the tentorium.

	Nerve - LoveToKnow 1911
		The optic nerve passes through the optic foramen in the skull into the orbit, where it is penetrated by the central artery of the retina, and eventually pierces the scelerotic just internal to the posterior pole of the eyeball.
		The frontal nerve divides into supraorbital and supratrochlear, which pass out of the upper part of the anterior opening of the orbit and supply the skin of the forehead and upper part of the scalp as well as the inner part of the eyelids.
		The anterior tibial nerve is chiefly muscular, innervating the muscles in front of the tibia and fibula as well as the extensor brevis digitorum pedis on the dorsum of the foot, though it gives one small cutaneous branch to the cleft between the first and second toes.

		The ciliary ganglion is connected with the ophthalmic nerve; the sphenopalatine ganglion with the maxillary nerve; and the otic and submaxillary ganglia with the mandibular nerve.
		It passes forward on the lateral side of the optic nerve, and enters the postero-superior angle of the ciliary ganglion; it is sometimes joined by a filament from the cavernous plexus of the sympathetic, or from the superior ramus of the trochlear nerve.
		The branches of the inferior alveolar nerve are the mylohyoid, dental, incisive, and mental.

		The nasociliary nerve is the sensory nerve to the eyeball and is accompanied by the ophthalmic artery.
		The optic nerve is surrounded by its dural sheath (and by the subarachnoid space, as shown in figure 46-4).

		Innervation is from V2 and V3, with the contributions from V2 being the anterior and posterior ethmoidal nerves and V3 being the sphenopalatine nerve.
		The frontal sinus begins as an evagination of the anterior nasal capsule around the fourth month of fetal development, but it is rarely radiographically visible until around the second year of life and does not reach adult size until the teenage years.
		Innervation is from the supraorbital and supratrochlear branches of the frontal nerve.

	Frontal nerve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The frontal nerve is the largest branch of the ophthalmic, and may be regarded, both from its size and direction, as the continuation of the nerve.
		It enters the orbit through the superior orbital fissure, and runs forward between the Levator palpebræ superioris and the periosteum.
		Midway between the apex and base of the orbit it divides into two branches, supratrochlear nerve and supraorbital nerve.

	Headaches - BioPulser® Signature Series
		A frontal headache, marked by pain in the forehead, occurs when Rectus Capitis Posterior Major (18), one of the key muscles in the suboccipital group, irritates Obliquus Capitis Posterior (17), located behind the ear.
		When the occipital nerve has been chronically impinged over a long period of time, the pain is usually numbed by endorphins.
		However, as the frontal sinus swells, it begins to press against and distort the forehead bones, frequently causing one eyeball to be lower than the other.

		As a result of the frequent occurrence of frontal nerve injury, dissection was often limited to the anterior one third of the zygomatic arch.
		It is critical to stay deep to the superficial temporal fat pad in the area of the zygomatic arch to avoid damage to the frontal branch of the facial nerve.
		If these nerves must be cut this is done as far from the bone as possible to decrease the distance that the nerve must regrow.

		Relevant Anatomy: The forehead unit is defined superiorly by the junction lines of the frontal portion of the scalp, laterally by the temporal region of the scalp and the temple, and inferiorly by the eyebrows and the glabella.
		The sensory nerves of the forehead are the supratrochlear nerve and the supraorbital nerve that course with their namesake arteries.
		Injury to these nerves usually occurs as a result of deep transverse incisions into the frontalis muscle, and it may result in temporary or permanent anesthesia from the point of the incision to the midpoint of the crown (Dzubow, Forehead, 1990).
