Abstract
Orbital connective tissue can be considered as an additional locomotory system of the eye. It is involved in orbital fractures, explaining the bizarre motility patterns in these patients. Various conditions, in patients with Graves' disease, are explained using the orbital connective tissue system as a key-stone. Avoidance of postoperative complications are discussed in eyelid lengthening and shortening procedures.Keywords
