Congenital Bilateral Anophthalmos

Expansion of the Socket and Orbit for Congenital Clinical Anophthalmia

“…This figure was also reported by Hare. 37 Santler et al 31 reported on a 5-year-old boy who had only a 5.2 ml anophthalmic orbit compared with his 20.3 ml healthy orbit. Gossman et al 25 described an average deficit of between 8 and 25 percent (mean 15 percent) in five patients with microphthalmia at the age of 10 months to 6 years (mean 2.3 years) when calculating only the one-dimensional mid-orbital width before therapy.…”
