Periosteal Incision Explanation

The periorbita, a tough membrane covering the orbital wall, is cut with a scalpel, cautery, or pointed scissors along the posterior lacrimal crest. This incision is made just behind the Horner muscle, which is responsible for controlling the eyelid's movement. The periosteum is then carefully peeled back from the medial wall to expose the area for surgery.

Medial Wall Exposure

The medial orbital wall is exposed by peeling back the periosteum superiorly and inferiorly, creating a wide opening. This exposes the medial wall from the floor to the roof of the orbit.

Closure

The conjunctiva, a delicate membrane lining the inner eyelid, and the caruncle, a small fleshy area near the inner eye corner, are closed with sutures. This helps prevent complications like scarring and fat prolapse.

Combined Approach

The transcaruncular approach can be combined with a retroseptal transconjunctival approach for more extensive procedures. This involves accessing the orbital floor through the conjunctiva, providing wider exposure.
