On the nasal surface of the body of the maxilla in front of the opening of the sinus is a deep groove the lacrimal groove (or lacrimal sulcus) which is converted into the nasolacrimal canal by the lacrimal bone and inferior nasal concha; this canal opens into the inferior meatus of the nose and transmits the nasolacrimal duct.
