Treatments included direct closure for defects measuring less than 25%, Tenzel flap for defects measuring 25-50%, lid-sharing procedures for defects measuring more than 50%, skin grafts for tumors affecting the inner canthus advancement flap for outer canthus tumors, and orbital exenteration for malignant tumors demonstrating orbital invasion.
