  • Title: Eyelid and orbital trauma for the primary care physician.
    Author: Gordon AA, Tran LT, Phelps PO.
    Journal: Dis Mon; 2020 Oct; 66(10):101045. PubMed ID: 32622682.
    Abstract:
    Patients who experience trauma to the eyelid or the orbit may present to their primary care providers or directly to the emergency room for evaluation of their injuries. These patients will often be in pain and may have bleeding around the eye, which can make evaluation of these patients difficult. Many traumatic injuries to the eye require quick and immediate intervention. In this article, we will review the background, anatomy, exam and management of some of the most common eye traumas including eyelid lacerations, orbital hemorrhages, intraorbital foreign bodies, and orbital fractures.
