Definitive treatment of the negative vector orbit

In a negative vector orbit, the most anterior globe portion protrudes past the malar eminence. As bulging eyes are considered unaesthetic, patients usually seek correction. However, most current correction techniques produce suboptimal results. Here, we present a surgical technique that sets back the globe and protrudes the malar bone using an intraoral approach. All five patients (aged 17 to 41 years) in our case series reported being satisfied with the improvement achieved using this technique.
