Titanium vs. bone graft: which fixes eye socket fractures better?
NCT ID NCT07340879
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 80 people with a broken eye socket bone (orbital floor blow-out fracture) to see if a titanium mesh or a bone graft from the hip works better for repair. The goal was to restore eye movement, reduce double vision, and fix a sunken eye. Both methods aim to support the eye and prevent long-term muscle damage.
