Uberon definition : The autonomic nerve is a small nerve which carries postganglionic sympathetic and
parasympathetic neurons from the zygomaticotemporal nerve; a branch of the maxillary
nerve, to the lacrimal nerve; a branch of the ophthalmic nerve. These neurons derive
from the superior cervical ganglion and the pterygopalatine ganglion respectively.
They will travel to the lacrimal gland via the lacrimal nerve. Parasympathetic will
induce lacrimation and vice versa.;
