I had 3 wall orbital decompression surgery on my right eye over 3 months ago. My eye has set back totally, but it has sunken downward to sinus. Is it possible to fix the position of the orbit with an Orbital Implant surgery? What ate the risks?

Thank you for your question and photos. The best option for you would be filler to the lower eyelids. There is nothing else that I know if that will address your issue.
