Orbital floor and medial orbital wall fractures, also known as blowout fractures, are common midface injuries. Orbital fractures have a distinct traumatic mechanism and are usually complex due to the intricate anatomy of the bony and soft tissue structures involved. The frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoid, zygomatic, and lacrimal bones form the bony structures of the orbit. Knowledge of anatomy is essential when dealing with patients presenting with orbital trauma. This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of fractures of the orbital floor and emphasizes the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing the condition.
