title: Three-dimensional imaging of congenital disorders involving the orbit.
abstract: Three-dimensional imaging of the orbit and its adnexa provides an excellent topographic visualization of the deformity or tumor extent. This helps comprehension, communication, education, and documentation in the process of treating the patient. This article briefly describes the technique of three-dimensional imaging and classifies congenital orbital deformities which are extensively illustrated with relevant case material.
