Hematomas in the orbital area may affect the eye.
Hematoma after orbital fall, if the size of hematoma is relatively large, it may compress the important blood vessels and nerves in the orbit, thus affecting the function of the eyeball, and in serious cases, it may lead to blindness.
Hematoma after orbital fall may be accompanied by fracture of the orbital wall, or even fracture of the optic nerve canal, which may directly damage the optic nerve, or even cut the optic nerve in serious cases, affecting the function of the eyeball.
Therefore, if hematoma occurs after orbital fall, it is necessary to go to ophthalmology department of hospital for examination in time, and do visual acuity examination, slit-lamp microscopy, fundoscopy, orbital ultrasound, orbital CT examination, etc. to evaluate the severity of the condition, and if it poses a threat to the health of the eyeballs, then treat it in time.
