Y1 - 2018 N1 - T2 - Reichman's Emergency Medicine Procedures, 3e AB - Luxation of the globe is a rare event whereby the eyelids slip behind the midcoronal plane of the eye in an extremely proptotic eye (Figures 195-1 and 195-2). Subsequent spasm of the orbicularis oculi muscle maintains the luxation of the globe. Extraocular eye movements become severely limited. The optic nerve and retinal vasculature are subjected to an abnormal amount of traction which results in possible damage to these structures or the retina.1This can result in partial or full blindness of the affected eye if it is not reduced before onset of irreversible ischemic changes.
