Eye Socket Reconstruction
Eye socket reconstruction
A fractured or displaced orbital floor is repaired with precision, restoring normal eye position and movement while protecting vision throughout.

OVERVIEW
Repairing the orbit, protecting vision and movement
A fracture of the eye socket can cause the eye to sit too low, double vision, or restricted eye movement. Because vision is involved, assessment and timing both matter.
Imaging maps the exact extent of the fracture, and repair is planned to restore the orbital floor precisely supporting the eye in its correct position and protecting movement.
- Restoring normal eye position and movement
- Protecting vision throughout assessment and repair
- Precise, imaging-guided reconstruction of the orbit
IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU?
You may be a candidate if…
One eye appears sunken or sits lower than the other
- You have double vision or restricted eye movement
- You have a confirmed or suspected orbital fracture
- You were treated elsewhere and problems remain
“The eye socket leaves very little room for error. Careful imaging and a joint approach with ophthalmology keep vision protected at every step.”
— Mr Nabeel Bhatti
THE PROCESS
How your treatment unfolds
01
Urgent assessment & imaging
A prompt joint assessment with ophthalmology, guided by scans.
02
Surgical planning
The repair is mapped precisely to restore the orbital floor.
03
The operation
Performed by Mr Bhatti with meticulous care around the eye.
04
Recovery & review
Close follow-up monitors vision and eye movement.
RECOVERY & OUTCOMES
What to expect afterwards
The first days
Swelling and bruising around the eye, monitored closely.
The first weeks
Eye movement and vision are reviewed as swelling settles.
Longer term
Eye position and movement stabilise over several months.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Eye Socket (Orbital) Reconstruction, answered
Will my vision be affected?
Vision is assessed jointly with ophthalmology throughout. Most patients recover normal eye position and movement, though this is discussed individually based on your injury.
How soon after injury is surgery needed?
Ideally within one to two weeks of injury, before healing begins in a fixed, incorrect position.
Will there be visible scarring?
Incisions are typically placed within the eyelid crease, keeping any visible scarring to a minimum.
