[Advances in the research and application of orbital blowout fracture repair material].

Orbital blowout fractures can easily lead to defects of the orbital wall. In order to restore the continuity of the bone wall and avoid a series of clinical symptoms caused by orbital contents herniation or incarceration, the site of the defect should be reconstructed. The effect of reconstruction depends on the choice of surgical plan and repair material. The typical materials for bone wall defect repair include bone sheet, high density porous polyethylene, titanium mesh, absorbable polymer, bioactive ceramics and tissue engineering bone. This paper reviews the research findings and application of material for repairing of orbital blowout fracture. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2019, 55: 876-880).
