Abstract | OBJECTIVE: PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a chart review of 51 patients (87 orbits) who underwent orbital decompression from July 1998 to June 2007. Ocular deviations, incidence of diplopia according to the type of decompression performed and the type and results of strabismus surgery were evaluated. RESULTS: CONCLUSION: Early strabismus surgery and the intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning technique appear to provide favorable results. It allows for a more rapid rehabilitation. Better adapted choice of decompression technique may improve final outcomes.
