Eye Exams - Orbit CT Scan

An orbital CT scan is a procedure that uses computed tomography to examine the orbits (the eye sockets) and the globes (the eyes).

This test is helpful in diagnosing a lesion or other disease which affects the tissues around the eyes, sinuses, optic nerves (nerves supplying the eyes), or eye muscles and vessels. As well, subtle fractures of the orbits can be detected.
