Evaluation
- Clinical exam (Eye Exam)
- PERRL, EOMI, visual fields
- Assess for diplopia
- Visual acuity
- Intraocular pressure measurement (see Tono-Pen use)
- CT with maxillofacial cuts
- Consider CTA or MRI/MRV
Management
- Management depends of pathophysiology
- Increased IOP may require a lateral Canthotomy
