Oral Maxillofac Surg Clin North Am. 2013 May;25(2):151-66. doi: 10.1016/j.coms.2013.01.005. Epub 2013 Mar 17.

Abstract

The repair and restoration of the eyelids and orbit can be a medical and surgical challenge. Inadequate orbital volume restoration could lead to poor functional and cosmetic defects. With advances in technology, our surgical techniques are constantly improving. This article focuses on ocular and orbital reconstruction following traumatic, iatrogenic, and acquired defects. Optimal outcomes can only be expected with appropriate diagnosis treatment planning in consultation with other specialists.
