title: [Diplopia in fractures of the orbital floor].
abstract: Based on their own experience with surgical treatment of 43 patients with fractures of the orbital floor, the authors discuss the problem of early operation in relation to the development of residual diplopia. They evaluate the functional result by the size of the visual field where diplopia occurred. In confirmed fractures of the orbit they recommend operation as early as possible after the injury. All patients were operated by the method of transantral reposition of the orbital floor. Satisfactory functional results were achieved in all operated patients. None of them had diplopia in the primary position of the eyes. The best results were achieved in patients operated early (residual diplopia in 10%), where none of the patients had diplopia in the visual field beneath 30 degrees.
