AI Article Synopsis
- Medpor implantation significantly improves extraocular muscle function and reduces symptoms like eye movement disorders and diplopia in patients after orbital wall fractures.
- The study showed a strong correlation between the degree of eyeball enophthalmos and the fracture area before surgery, which diminished post-operation.
- Patients who had surgery within three weeks of the injury experienced higher recovery rates for muscle restrictions and paralysis compared to those who waited longer.
Article Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the impact of Medpor implantation on extraocular muscle function, eye movement disorders, and diplopia in patients with orbital wall fracture.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 98 patients (98 eyes) who underwent Medpor implantation surgery at Bethune International Peace Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022. The degree of eyeball enophthalmos and total fracture area in patients before and after surgery, as well as orbital volume were measured. The relationship between enophthalmos severity and total fracture area was analyzed. Changes in extraocular muscle function, eye movement, and diplopia were assessed before and after surgery.
Results: Before operation, enophthalmos severity was correlated with the total fracture area (r = 0.323, P = 0.001). After surgery, there was no significant correlation (r = -0.053, P = 0.630). Compared with preoperative measurements, both orbital volume and the volume difference improved significantly after surgery (both P < 0.05). Among the patients who received surgery within 3 weeks, the cure rates for rectus muscle restriction and extraocular muscle paralysis were 94.12% and 100.00%, respectively, higher than those in patients who underwent surgery after 3 weeks (67.27% and 65.62%) (P < 0.05). In comparison of preoperative conditions, notable improvements were observed in both ocular motility disorders and diplopia after operation (both P < 0.05). The total improvement rates in ocular motility disorders at 1, 3 and 6 months of follow-up were 84.69%, 90.82%, 96.94%, respectively, while these rates in diplopia were 89.79%, 91.84% and 95.92%, respectively. Abnormal maxillofacial sensations also improved significantly at 1-, 3-, and 6-month post-surgery (all P < 0.05).
Conclusions: Medpor implantation effectively restores extraocular muscle function in patients with orbital wall fractures, significantly alleviating diplopia, eye movement disorders, and maxillofacial abnormalities.

Purpose: To study the feasibility and value of assessing patients with Graves' orbitopathy (GO) in 99mTc-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) orbital single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) with extraocular muscle maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax).
Methods: A total of 235 patients underwent 99mTc-DTPA orbital SPECT/CT, including 176 patients with GO and 59 patients with Graves' disease (GD) as controls. The SUVmax of extraocular muscles, including right medial rectus muscle (RMR), right lateral rectus muscle (RLR), left medial rectus muscle (LMR), left lateral rectus muscle (LLR), was compared between groups, correlation analyses with clinical activity scores (CAS) and serological indices was performed, and the diagnostic efficacy was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves.
The Utility of Preoperative Phenylephrine Testing in Müller Muscle Conjunctival Resection Surgery for Involutional Ptosis.

Purpose: Phenylephrine testing prior to Müller muscle conjunctival resection has traditionally been used to predict postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine if preoperative phenylephrine testing impacts postoperative changes in eyelid position.
Methods: In this multicenter cross-sectional cohort study, 270 eyelids of participants with involutional ptosis and levator function >12 mm who underwent Müller muscle conjunctival resection were divided into 2 comparison groups.

Vertebrates stabilize gaze using a neural circuit that transforms sensed instability into compensatory counterrotation of the eyes. Sensory feedback tunes this vestibulo-ocular reflex throughout life. We studied the functional development of vestibulo-ocular reflex circuit components in the larval zebrafish, with and without sensation.

Intermittent exotropia (IXT) is the most common type of strabismus, with surgical interventions standing as its main therapeutic modality. In recent years, with the rapid development of the strabismus and pediatric ophthalmology subspecialties, surgical correction for IXT has become a routine practice across numerous institutions in China. However, the surgical success rate is not high and tends to decline with longer follow-up periods.
