Orbital Emphysema After Repair of Orbital Fracture.

Orbital emphysema is a rare postoperative complication that can cause diplopia and even visual loss. Therefore, immediate diagnosis and treatment are crucial. In this study, a healthy male patient sustained left facial trauma caused by a fall 2 months ago; orbit emphysema occurred when the patient sneezed on the 5th day after surgery. The patient was treated conservatively with oral antibiotics and oral dexamethasone. Sixth-month follow-up showed no residual lesion.
