The lachrymal bones (lacrimal bones) are two of the smaller bones in the face, and form part of the medial walls of the orbit cavities and part of the side walls of the nasal cavity. The lachrymal bones, in conjunction with part of the maxilla, feature small channels, called lachrymal fossa, which allow the tear ducts to drain into the nasal cavity. Research Lachrymal Bone
