Description

The supraorbital margins are the two prominent, curved edges that form the superior portion of the opening of each orbit. On its corresponding side, each supraorbital margin:

—extends laterally from the nasal part of frontal bone to its zygomatic process;

—is located inferior to the supraciliary arch;

—consists of either a supraorbital notch or supraorbital foramen.

The supraorbital margins are thicker in males than females.
