The facial bone located near the tear glands is the lacrimal bone. It is a small, thin bone situated in the medial wall of each eye socket (orbit) and contains the lacrimal fossa, which houses the lacrimal sac that collects tears from the eye. The lacrimal bones play a role in the drainage system for tears, facilitating their movement from the eye into the nasal cavity.
