Question
hi
i recently noticed my left eyelid droops lower than my right eyelid. recently i had a maxillary sinus fracture. could a maxillary sinus fracture result in enopthalamos?
Answer
Dear Jonathan,
The superior wall ( roof) of the maxillary sinus is the same as the floor of the orbit. A fracture involving this wall of the maxillary sinus can cause enophthalmos. We shallneed a CT Scan to determine what exactly is the case.
You can e mail the report to dranand@lasikindia.in
Hope this helps,
Best,
