How would fractured eye socket surgery fix the break?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye socket Sx: Some specialists feel surgical repair is needed only if the patient has persistent double vision or the eye recedes into the socket. A comminuted fracture may need stabilization in order for the bone fragments to re-adhere.
