Trauma to the orbital region may result in fractures of the bony orbit, displacement of which gives rise to malposition of the eye and diplopia. If initial treatment is not feasible or is unsuccessful, later correction may be achieved by osteotomy or reduction and stabilisation of the bony fragments, often with bone grafts. Displaced medial or lateral canthi may need to be repositioned, where feasible in an overcorrected position. Where bone grafts are necessary, the skull is now favoured as the best donor site.
