[The adipose tissue of the orbit. Anatomic classification, therapeutic deductions].
There are two types of adipose tissue in the orbit. The yellow fat and the more abundant white, or orbital fat. Orbital fat cannot be dissociated from the contents of the orbit and plays an important role in ocular physiology and oculomotricity. Orbital fat is essential for aesthetic orbits. Graves' disease and anophthalmia. Adipose tissue in the orbit is particularly important in protecting the ocular globe from lateral wall trauma.
