Posttraumatic orbital emphysema can cause subconjunctival emphysema and proptosis. Monitoring intraocular pressure is recommended to detect potential compressive optic neuropathy after orbital trauma.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Posttraumatic tension orbitus is a rare condition.
  • Subconjunctival emphysema and proptosis can occur following orbital trauma.

Observation:

  • A young man developed posttraumatic tension orbitus with subconjunctival emphysema and proptosis.
  • Intraocular pressures were monitored to indirectly assess intraorbital pressure.
  • The patient was evaluated for signs of compressive optic neuropathy.

Findings:

  • While orbital pressure can increase post-injury, the rise in intraocular pressure following orbital trauma with emphysema is typically not severe enough to cause visual compromise.
  • The study supports existing literature on the subject.

Implications:

  • Monitoring intraocular pressure and evaluating the optic nerve are crucial for managing patients with posttraumatic orbital emphysema.
  • Early detection of compressive optic neuropathy is essential for preserving vision.
