Abstract
In Win measurements of the eye were obtained in 55 normal adults using computed tomography. Means and standard deviations were established for the maximum transverse and the maximum anteroposterior dimensions. Our data indicate that the widely used methods of Sweet and Pfeiffer-Comberg (for intraorbital foreign body localization) underestimate the actual in vivo dimensions of the eye.Keywords
