Where is the orbit? Definition of orbital septum attachment sites
The orbital septum originates from the arcus marginalis and attaches to the levator aponeurosis and lower eyelid retractors around the temporal palpebral commissure. It does not attach directly to the orbital tubercle; instead, a space filled with orbital fat exists between the orbital septum and the levator aponeurosis-lower eyelid retractors.
