Superior to the inner canthus, in a depression on the eyebrow, close to its medial end.

Explanation:
The location being described points to the Bladder channel’s first point, Jingming. It sits in the small hollow at the inner corner of the eye, essentially just medial to the inner canthus along the orbital margin. That “depression” right by the inner eye is characteristic of Jingming, and this point is specifically used for eye issues such as redness, tearing, or irritation. This is different from the other nearby points: one is located at the medial end of the eyebrow itself, which is a separate bladder point, and another bladder point sits higher on the brow or further away from the inner canthus. There’s also a point in front of the ear on the SI channel. So the description best matches Jingming, the inner-canthus bladder point.
