A boy of eight years in an automobile accident was supposed to have lost the eyeball. Three years later he came with enophthalmos the appearances resembling those following enucleation. The eyeball was found displaced backward 20 mm. and firmly adherent to the wall of the orbit, posteriorly. There was probably fracture of the orbit but direct force drove the eyeball backward and displaced the orbital fat forward at the time of injury. Reported from the Department of Ophthalmology, Robert W. Long Hospital, Indiana University School of Medicine.
