    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Instruments
    • Trauma Surgery

    Background:

    • Orbital floor fractures can result from facial trauma.
    • These fractures may lead to enophthalmos, diplopia, and infraorbital nerve paresthesia.
    • Accurate surgical repair is crucial for restoring orbital function and aesthetics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the utility of a specific surgical instrument in orbital floor repair.
    • To highlight the effectiveness of the 15-cm orbital floor elevator in managing orbital contents and bony fragments.

    Main Methods:

    • A 15-cm orbital floor elevator was employed during surgical repair of orbital floor defects.
    • The instrument was used to gently elevate orbital contents.
    • Bony fragments were repositioned and removed using the elevator.
