Orbital plate

The orbital plate (laminapapiracea) is a thin translucent membrane that is located between the orbit and the skull. It consists of two layers - outer and inner. The outer layer is made up of collagen fibers and contains a large amount of elastin, while the inner layer is made up of elastin fibers and contains less collagen. The orbital plate plays an important role in maintaining the shape of the orbit and protecting it from damage.

The orbital plate can be damaged as a result of injury or disease, such as osteomyelitis, syphilis, tuberculosis and others. In this case, various symptoms may occur, such as pain, swelling, redness and blurred vision. Treatment may include drug therapy, surgery, or a combination of these methods.

In conclusion, the orbital plate is an important element of the orbit and plays an important role in its maintenance. Damage to it can lead to serious consequences, so it is necessary to monitor its condition and, if necessary, consult a doctor.



The orbital plate is an integral part of the occipital-parietal region of the skull and is a paired plate lining its external liquorrenal. The orbital plates are located on the sides of the anterior part of the occipital bone and surround the orbit. This plate is covered with periosteum, which covers the outside of the bone. One part of this plate forms the floor of the orbit - the upper part of the intraorbital space, and the other is represented by the canine ligament. The surface of the plate is covered with a rough surface. Also on the reverse side of this plate you can find a fatty pad through which the blood supply is carried out.
