There are many common causes of enophthalmos. Eyeball invagination refers to an eyeball invagination larger than 3 mm, which is caused by eyeball retraction or imbalance between orbital soft tissue and orbital membrane, which can lead to the failure of eyelid and cornea to maintain contact, resulting in corneal dryness and other complications. The common causes of enophthalmos are congenital microphthalmia, acquired atrophy of eyeball, Horner syndrome of sympathetic paralysis, atrophy and disappearance of periorbital fat, orbital hematoma and enlargement of orbital cavity after tumor removal. Orbital fracture after trauma, fat hernia into maxillary sinus and excessive contraction of rectus muscle can lead to eyeball depression; Mild enophthalmos does not require treatment. Severe enophthalmos is harmful to beauty and can be treated by correction of enophthalmos.

Guiding opinions:

Atrophy of eyeball is a continuous decrease of intraocular pressure caused by eye diseases or systemic diseases, which leads to the destruction of eyeball tissue structure and function, and the eyeball becomes soft and smaller. Generally, when the intraocular pressure is lower than 8 mm Hg for a long time, the eyeball gradually becomes soft and atrophied, and the decrease of aqueous humor and excessive outflow are the main causes of hypotony. If the clinical atrophy of eyeball is caused by the depression of eyeball, it usually takes a long time, and this atrophy is irreversible and the prognosis is poor. In your case, the cause of eyeball atrophy caused by decreased intraocular pressure may be related to infection and overuse of eyes. It is recommended that you often rest your eyes to improve the quality of the eye environment. If you are not at ease, go to a big hospital for a special eye examination to find out the cause.
