Abstract

The eyes speak without words which enhance the beauty of
face. The malposition of eyeballs leads to unacceptable cosmetic problem for the people of
both sexes and all age groups. To analyse and compare the morphometric measurements of
right and left orbital cavity in adult dry skulls and to see the statistical significance in it. To
assess the influence of other parameters over bony orbital volume and to evaluate its
significance. Methods: The quantitative morphometry of orbital cavity was studied in 40
adult dry skulls and computed tomographic images of brain belonging to 60 patients (30
males and 30 females). Adult dry skulls with intact orbital cavities and the computed
tomographic images of brain reported as ‘normal study’ were only included in this study. At
DMCH Darbhanga, Study duration of Two years.
Conclusion: The quantitative morphometry of orbital cavity is utmost important without
which reconstructive surgeries are not possible. The study of these morphometric parameters
in computed tomographic scans is mandatory for the assessment of fractured orbital cavity by
comparing it with normal orbital cavity. So in the present study, the morphometry of orbital
cavity was studied by two methods.
