Question

Why the eye socket bone part is the easiest to bleed when knocked?

Answer 1

The eye socket, or orbit, is made up of the bones that surround the eye. The structure of the eye socket is designed to protect the eye from injury. However, if you are injured and the eye or bones around the eye are hit hard enough, you can break one or more of the bones around the eye. This is called an eye socket fracture, sometimes called a blowout fracture.

An eye socket fracture can result from being hit directly on the eye or on the bones around the eye. The bones below the eye (the orbital floor) and between the eye and the nose (the medial wall) are very thin. When the eye is hit with enough force, the eye itself can break these bones.

Injuries that can result in an eye socket fracture include:

falls

motor vehicle accidents

sports injuries

assault (such as a punch or kick to the bones around the eye)

An important type of eye socket fracture is a trapdoor fracture. This type of fracture usually happens in children because their bones are springier than those of adults. Because of this springiness, the bone beneath the eye can swing down when broken and then swing shut, trapping the muscle that moves the eye down (the inferior rectus). This causes the muscle to lose blood flow, resulting in severe double vision, nausea, and vomiting.

the skin layer is too thin on our face.. easily cracks and bleeds...

Answer 4

the eye socket part is nearest to bone.. when the is hard surface the time of contact when 2 object "knocked" is very short. the force exerted will be higher.. objects that is hard or non elastic produse a shoter time of contacts....

can obtain from the impulse equation Ft=mv-mu...

heeheehee....
