Background: The purpose of this case report is to demonstrate a re-surgery in patient with inadequate management of multiple orbital fractures and traumatic optic neuropathy as a way to relieve his visual problem. Case Report: A 25 year old male presented with double vision following surgical repair of orbital rim fracture. Right eye examination revealed restricted eye movement in all directions and visual acuity was 2/60. Improvement was noted in diplopia and visual acuity following surgery in our hospital to release tissue entrapment with silicone block implant. Conclusion: Management of multiple orbital fractures should be done simultaneously with multidisciplinary teams for adequate and appropriate management.
Purpose: to evaluate the outcome of anterior blepharotomy in correcting eyelid retraction in patients with Thyroid Eye Disease (TED). Methods: Literature search was conducted from MEDLINE database through PubMed, Google scholar and ClinicalKey. Outcomes included margin-reflex distance, palpebral fissure height, and upper eyelid margin-superior limbus distance. Results: Sixteen articles were reviewed with a mean follow-up time in the studies varied, ranging from 6 to 61 months. The preoperative and postoperative mean MRDs varied. Although there were different success criteria, success rate for full thickness blepharotomy ranged from 59-93%, comparable with levator recession. The complication rates in 14 studies were less than 20%. Conclusion: Full thickness anterior blepharotomy and Müller muscle and levator recession, are safe and effective in correcting upper eyelid retraction in patients with TED. The anterior blepharotomy is a relatively quick and simple procedure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
