Results of treatment. A – computerized tomography in sagittal view: titanium mesh deformated during intra-orbital maneuvres in primary surgery (asterisk); its deepest located part hurts the inferior rectus muscle. B – downgaze significantly limited in the left eye; C – result of binocular single vision loss test: diplopia caused by titanium mesh is mainly up- and downgaze. D - computerized tomography in sagittal view after corrective surgery and exchange of the implant to stiff patient specific ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene implant: orbital floor is reconstructed (arrow) and inferior rectus muscle is free. E – normal eye globe motility: full downgaze 1 month post-operationally. F - result of binocular single vision loss test: residual diplopia in upgaze/left.
