ORBITOMETER-OPHTHALMOMETER - NEW SURGICAL AND CLINICAL DEVICE

On the basis of analysis of the orbital bony architecture and the loca tions of the medial and lateral canthi, as well as the pupillary posit ion, a new orthomorphic linear scale was devised for orbital surgery. The measuring device was designed to facilitate hard- and soft-tissue repositioning during mono-orbital and biorbital surgery. The device is useful for craniofacial, reconstructive, and periorbital trauma surge ry and, to the best of our knowledge, is the first one described.
