Detailed explanation-1: -The Trigeminal Nerve The ophthalmic nerve splits into the lacrimal, frontal, and nasociliary nerves as it passes to the SOF.
Detailed explanation-2: -[1] It has three terminal branches, which in descending order are ophthalmic nerve (V1), maxillary nerve (V2), and mandibular nerve (V3). The ophthalmic and maxillary divisions carry only sensory fibers while the mandibular division carries both sensory and motor fibers.
Detailed explanation-3: -The ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve, also referred to as the ophthalmic nerve, is a purely sensory (afferent) nerve. It is the smallest division of the trigeminal nerve. It runs forward in the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus below the oculomotor and trochlear nerves.
