At its origin it is narrow and tendinous, but soon becomes broad and fleshy, and terminates anteriorly in a wide aponeurosis, which splits into three lamellse. The superficial lamella blends with the superior palpebral ligament, and is prolonged forward above the superior tarsal plate to the palpebral part of the Orbicularis palpebrarum and to the deep surface of the skin of the.
