title: Early and late complications of orbital fractures.
abstract: Complications, unfortunately, arise as a result of traumatic or iatrogenic injuries. The sequelae can range from the most insignificant to the most debilitating. The most common complications noted in the diagnosis and treatment of orbital fractures are outlined as well as discussed as appropriate to their appearance during the healing process. With better understanding and better management, complications can be prevented.
