title: Surgical management of enophthalmos in Duane syndrome.
abstract: Duane syndrome is a congenital disorder of eye movement characterized by partial or absent development of the sixth cranial nerve nucleus and/or the sixth nerve itself. Patients often undergo procedures, both surgical and nonsurgical, to correct ocular misalignment and improve the resulting visual problems. We present a case report of a 49-year-old woman with left-sided Duane syndrome who underwent aesthetic surgical correction of enophthalmos.
