Congenital anophthalmos. Problems in management. 1978

L P Steahly

The management of congenital anophthalmos is difficult under the best of circumstances. Therapy is directed towards enlargement of the sorbet by expansion and/or surgical techniques. Early expansion therapy within the first year of life appears to be warranted in view of the differential orbital growth rates.
