It passes along the outer side of the optic nerve, and enters theposterior superior angle of the ganglion. The sympathetic root has its origin inthe cavernous plexus, and is somewhat difficult to dissect satisfactorily. It entersthe back portion of the ganglion in one of three ways: most commonly in com-pany with the sensory root, more rarely alone, in the form of a bunch of finefilaments, and least frecjuently in company with the motor root. Branches.—From the anterior border of the ganglion about six delicatefilaments are given off, which run forward to the eyeball and, by subdividing,number twenty when they reach the globe. They are termed the short ciliarynerves. They surround the optic nerve and pierce the sclerotic coat in a circlearound the entrance of that nerve. Having penetrated the sclerotic coat, t
