Immediate socket restoration after orbital trauma with globe loss: principles, timing, and our experience.
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery 2014 March
The literature-reported incidence of ophthalmic injuries occurring with facial fracture ranges widely from 0.8% to 30%. Ocular trauma necessitating enucleation or evisceration is less common, but it is not rare. The trauma and physical disability related to removal of the eye are extreme. Moreover, the loss of an eye causes severe changes to the anatomy and physiology of the orbit, resulting in deformities that affect the relationship between the socket and the prosthesis. Here, the authors present their own experience of 8 consecutive cases of trauma injuries with globe loss and emphasize the importance of accurate, early bone reconstruction involving evisceration and immediate socket restoration.
