Medial wall fractures of the orbit have the potential risk of medial rectus entrapment and enophthalmos. The risk of enophthalmos, though, is not necessarily the same as with similarly sized orbital floor fractures. This is because the force of gravity is not displacing orbital contents into the areas of the adjacent sinus, as with orbital floor fractures.
