What Are Floor Fractures?
A floor fracture, typically referring to an orbital floor fracture, involves a break in one of the bones surrounding the eye, specifically the thin bone forming the bottom part of the eye socket. This type of injury can result from trauma to the face or eye area, such as a fall, a sports injury, or a car accident. Floor fractures can lead to significant discomfort and visual disturbances, making prompt and effective treatment crucial. At IC Laser Eye Care and Suburban Eye Associates, our team is equipped with the latest technology and expertise to diagnose and manage floor fractures, ensuring our patients receive the highest standard of care and support throughout their recovery process.
How Are Floor Fractures Treated?
At IC Laser Eye Care and Suburban Eye Associates, treating floor fractures involves a tailored approach to ensure the best outcomes for our patients. Initially, our team conducts a thorough evaluation, including imaging tests like CT scans or x-rays, to accurately assess the severity of the fracture. Treatment strategies may range from conservative measures to surgical intervention, depending on the fracture's complexity and symptoms. For less severe cases, options include ice packs to reduce swelling, antibiotics to prevent infection, and corticosteroids to manage inflammation. In cases where the fracture affects vision, restricts eye movement, or involves the orbital muscles, surgery may be necessary to repair the orbital floor and restore function. Our team utilizes the latest techniques and technologies to achieve optimal results, focusing on minimizing recovery time and maximizing the return of normal eye function and appearance.
What Are the Symptoms of Floor Fractures?
The symptoms associated with an orbital fracture vary, depending on the type of fracture and its severity. These symptoms may include:
- Swelling of the forehead or cheek
- Black and blue bruising around the eyes
- Blurry, decreased, or double vision
- Swollen skin under the eye
- Numbness in the injured side of the face
- Difficulty moving the eye to look left, right, up, or down
- Blood in the white part of the eye
- Intense cheek pain when opening the mouth
- Flattened cheek
- Bulging or sunken eyeballs

I have been a patient of IC Laser on Knights Rd for the last 5 years and have always left satisfied and happy. I have gotten contacts, prescription glasses and eye check-ups and all of those services have been exceptional. Picking out glasses is not an easy thing because you want your glasses to look right with the shape of your face. Dianna the Optician is super nice, very knowledgeable and patient with me every time I visit. She has even made my 6 year old nephew feel confident and cool in his first pair of glasses! I definitely recommend checking this place out for all your vision needs.
