Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Enophthalmos and ocular dystopia are common complications following orbital trauma.
  • Surgical correction is often necessary to restore ocular alignment and aesthetics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of elective surgical correction for enophthalmos and ocular dystopia.
  • To assess the role of three-dimensional orbital reconstruction with titanium plates.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 10 patients with ocular dystopia post-orbital trauma.
  • Surgical intervention involved 3D orbital reconstruction using titanium plates.
  • Outcomes measured by subjective patient evaluation and objective eye position measurements.

Main Results:

  • Satisfactory correction of enophthalmos and ocular dystopia was achieved in all patients.
  • Titanium plates provided effective orbital reconstruction.
  • Intraoperative measurements of eye position in three planes improved surgical accuracy.

Conclusions:

  • Elective surgery with titanium plates is a successful treatment for enophthalmos and ocular dystopia.
  • Intraoperative monitoring of eye position enhances surgical precision and outcomes.
