There are various types of implants used for orbital fracture reconstruction surgery. I used silastic sheet at first, then medpore product, and now I use an absorbable material.

There are still doctors who are not sure about the use of absorbable materials for orbital fracture surgery, but I would like to inform you that there is no problem with my experience so far.

In addition, orbital fracture surgery is evolving into a patient customizing treatment in the future as well as the development of materials used.

A 3D implant that accurately fits the patient’s fractured area using CT and navigation surgery for precise surgery will be widely used.
