An enlarged lateral cut-away view of the right orbit is also included to illustrate the internal carotid artery, orbital vasculature, eye and optic nerve in greater detail. Labels identify the eye, internal carotid artery, common carotid artery, aorta, heart, posterior ciliary arteries, optic nerve, and central artery of the retina.
