Why would I have enopthalmos after orbital repair surgery when I didn't have it before the surgery? (Photo)

Asked By:miss.elaneous in New Westminster, BC

5 weeks ago, I had a trauma to the right eye, causing an orbital floor fracture, with complete double vision. After about two weeks the double vision started resolving but my doctor thought surgery was warranted. My eyes were equal at that point. I had surgery two weeks ago to free the entrapped tissue and an implant put in and my vision is about the same as before, but now my right eye is 3mm different from my left. Should I be asking to have this repaired? Will it get worse since I'm only two weeks out?
