Abstract

Orbital hematoma is a condition not often encountered by the ophthalmologist. Trauma is the most common cause among the conditions caused to orbital hematoma. We have experienced a case of traumatic orbital hematoma with severe proptosis, visual deterioration, and limitation of EOM which was spread from parietal subperiosteal hemorrhage. It was managed efficiently by Hemo-vac application through transparietal route. We report this case with the review of the literatures.
