Abstract This study comprised on 300 skulls and aimed to know the incidence of the presence of a groove in the lateral wall of the human orbit. The groove in the lateral wall was present in 180 orbits (30%) of 600 orbits studied, distributed on the right side in 18Q orbits (1896) and on the left side in 72 orbits (12%). About 141 grooves (23.5%) arose from the superior orbital fissure and 39 groove (6.5%) arose from the foramen meningo - or- The groove for the orbital branch of the anterior division of the mid Hip meningeal artery was found in 160 hemiskulls (80%) of 200 hemislculls studied
