Definition[Bearbeiten]
The conjunctival veins are smaller veins that drain the conjunctiva of the eye (conjunctiva). They flow into the superior and inferior ophthalmic veins and the palpebral veins.
Clinic[Bearbeiten]
In cavernous sinus thrombosis, reddening and chemosis of the ipsilateral eye occurs due to congestion in the conjunctival veins.
