Orbital medial wall fracture is a serious type of orbital trauma, and the specific treatment of orbital medial wall fracture needs to be comprehensively judged according to the type and degree of fracture. Normal orbital wall fracture, and not too much displacement, nor broken bone pieces fall off or the corresponding clinical symptoms of the optic nerve, most of the choice to conservative treatment, in the conservative treatment process should pay attention to whether the patient has vision abnormalities, diplopia, blindness, or whether there is a comprehensive situation such as elevated intraocular pressure, such as regular observation without too much symptoms, then 6-8 weeks later can be cured. But if the orbital wall fracture is more serious, as follows: On the one hand, the area of injury is relatively large; on the other hand, it also shows the displacement of fracture fragments, which may cause the fracture fragments to compress the neural canal, thus affecting the patient's vision. If the broken bone fragments or fracture displacement oppresses the optic nerve, it may also cause abnormal vision, such as visual field defect, diplopia, and even blindness. At the same time, the fracture displacement may cause orbital wall deformity, eyeball compression and other problems. Therefore, in summary, if the trauma caused obvious orbital fracture, should be timely to the ophthalmology for the corresponding diagnosis, according to the fracture and the degree of injury to determine the treatment method.
