  • Title: Orbital socket pain after injury.
    Author: Sutula FC, Weiter JJ.
    Journal: Am J Ophthalmol; 1980 Nov; 90(5):692-6. PubMed ID: 7446650.
    Abstract:
    Total retinal detachment and neovascular glaucoma occurred after a penetrating injury to the left globe that left the eye blind and painful. A retrobulbar injection of alcohol and enucleation modified but did not relieve the orbital discomfort. At surgery, we discovered a neuroma with cartilaginous metaplasia involving the supratrochlear nerve. Excision of this mass produced relief of symptoms. This is, to our knowledge, the first reported case of a neuroma with cartilaginous metaplasia involving the supratrochlear nerve.
