Reconstructive dilemma after blindness.

Pramod Kumar1, Virendra Singh2.   

Abstract

Blindness associated with mid-facial fractures is rare. Here we present a case of panfacial fracture associated with loss of vision of right eye. The reconstruction of left orbital region posed a challenge, as post surgical vision loss can be a remote complication. Through this case report we highlight our dilemma and describe the different philosophies adopted by other specialties in management.
