Comparison between preoperative and postoperative cavernous sinus cranial nerves (CSCN) outcomes based on the ocular motility grading system.

Postoperative function	Preoperative function
	Excellent (n = 0)	Good (n = 2)	Fair (n = 6)	Poor (n = 4)
Excellent (n = 4)	0	2	2	0
Good (n = 7)	0	0	4	3
Fair (n = 0)	0	0	0	0
Poor (n = 1)	0	0	0	1

The deficits were graded into: “Excellent,” no diplopia, no ptosis; “Good,” no diplopia in primary gaze, but diplopia out of primary gaze positions, mild ptosis; “Fair,” diplopia in primary gaze; “Poor,” moderate to severe ptosis, nearly total ophthalmoparesis.
