“…This corresponds to a small number and the lower range of incomplete lid closure in children from our study who underwent correction using Mustarde's modified method. Some authors explain the presence of postoperative lagophthalmos by incomplete freeing of the septum orbitale, or sutures incorporating the septum and LPS aponeurosis, resulting in a 'hangup' with eyelid closure (16,17). Children's eyes are usually tolerant to drying and, in our group, cases with lagophthalmos corneas adapted with appropriate treatment.…”

“…Traumatic ptosis associated with orbital fracture may be caused by direct or indirect injuries to the levator palpebrae superior muscle or to its aponeurosis. Orbital and neurosurgical procedures may also lead to traumatic ptosis [8,11].…”

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.

“…A FMLPS é um parâmetro essencial para o planejamento de cirurgia de blefaroptose, podendo-se classificá-la como (22) : (1) Função pobre do MLPS, quando a margem palpebral se move entre 0 e 4 mm; (2) Função moderada, de 5 a 7 mm; (3) Função boa, de 8 a 10 mm (4) Função excelente, acima de 10 mm. Na blefaroptose involucional, a FMLPS é pouco alterada (23)(24)(25) , observando-se ação média de 15,3 mm (±1,6 mm), com valores entre 12 e 20 mm (26) . A FMLPS média, no presente estudo, foi de 14 mm para ambos os olhos e, mesmo quando o valor foi baixo, esteve por volta de 8 mm, o que ainda pode ser considerado como uma boa função.…”
