Two ways to fix a broken eye socket
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two methods surgeons use to fix a broken bone around the eye (orbital fracture). The goal is to see which approach gives patients a better recovery with fewer side effects.

This study compares two ways to rebuild part of the eye socket bone: a 3D-printed implant versus using the patient’s own bone. It may help show which approach works better to restore eye position and symptoms like double vision after an injury or surgery.
This trial tests a surgical approach to fix a specific type of jaw fracture (outside the jaw joint). It may be a good option if you have a break that needs surgery and you don't have other injuries or conditions that would make surgery riskier.
