Isolated Superior Rectus Muscle Hematoma Following Blunt Orbital Trauma

Isolated ocular muscle hematoma due to blunt trauma is very rare. In this study, a 15-year-old patient presented with an isolated superior rectus hematoma due to an orbital hit from a cellular phone. He was treated with oral corticosteroids alone. Marked improvement in symptoms and eye movements was observed.
