Abstract

Fractures of the internal orbit can cause a number of problems, including diplopia, ocular muscle entrapment, and enophthalmos. While muscle entrapment is relatively rare, diplopia and enophthalmos are relatively common sequelae of internal orbital fractures. Fortunately, diplopia is self-limiting in the majority of cases because it is usually caused by intraorbital edema and resolves with resolution of the swelling. The more feared complication of internal orbital fractures is enophthalmos, which does not usually present for several weeks to months after injury.
