EDEMA, SCARRING, COMPLICATIONS
As for the exposure time, group C had the longest duration. Easy access to the site of fracture was reached in all groups with no statistically significant difference. During the first 24 h, the pain was only statistically significant between groups A and B with higher pain level in group A. After the first week, pain was significantly higher in groups A and C, with respect to group B. The least edema was observed in group B after 24 h, one week and four weeks postoperatively. Regarding ocular complications, wound healing and sensory nerve function, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. Scarring was only noticeable in group A patients.
