Orbital hypertelorism is defined as an increased distance between the orbits, with true lateral displacement of the orbits. Hypertelorism is associated with underlying craniosynostosis syndromes, median facial clefting, and some other genetic syndromes. Evaluation of hypertelorism includes precise measurement and a complete dysmorphology exam. Referral to a geneticist is indicated for patients with hypertelorism, and genetic testing is often indicated. Patients may benefit from evaluation by an interprofessional craniofacial team, and surgical reconstruction may be indicated.
