Eyes

Post by solbjerg »

Hi All
Freelang is of course the apple of our eyes! :D

But I was wondering if anyone knew what the corner of the eye is called if it has to be specific.

To look at something out of the corner of the eye must refer to the outer corner as one cannot look through ones nose - only down it :D if one utilizes the inner corner of the eye.
I have come across the medial corner of the eye (inner) and the lateral corner of the eye (outer).
Does anyone know of another term for this?
Cheers

What exactly do you want to know?
The anatomical term for that part of the eye?

Hi Anthos
Thanks for answering, - I wondered if anyone knew of a layman term other than those I mentioned that named the two corners of the eye unequivocally, - but the precise medical terms would be fine too - I ought to be able to find those myself though, but any assistance will be welcomed.
As you probably understand I am looking for synonyms for my dictionary :-)
Thank you Anthos!
Cheers
