Summary
This chapter reviews anatomy of the eyelids, lacrimal system, and orbit. Anatomic knowledge is the basis of ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery. By thoroughly understanding the relationship between the various layers and structures, a surgeon can often preserve functionality and cosmesis of the orbit and periocular region.
