i dunno what she had. I just googled orbital decompression before and after. it was like one of the first pics.

also LOL. not sure if shes had orbital decompression, just found this link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ealford/6887430240/

Looks like she only had rhino, but her eyes look better. Either way OD makes the face look better if you have bulging eyes.

Not everyone with bulging eyes requires an orbital decompression surgery, some simply have a bone deficiency around the rim of the orbits which makes their eyes appear more prominent. Orbital decompression works for patients who's eyeballs bulge so much that you start seeing a large part of their sclera. In this case, the surgeon would need to carve the extra fat/bone inside the orbital globe to set the eyeballs back into the eyes to their normal position.

Hello. I recently--three weeks ago, roughly--had double jaw surgery for my class 2 occlusion, but I do feel that my face still needs quite a bit of work done for me to be content with it.

My pupillary distance is 58-60 mm (it is difficult to measure it precisely with rudimentary equipment), and I do feel that this dimension is incredibly small if not in absolute terms then relative to the rest of my facial anatomy.

For a year or thereabouts now I have known that I would benefit greatly from even a slight bilateral expansion of the interorbital region; we're talking 5-6 mm at most, a very minor movement compared to those cases (for some reason, only hypertelorism seems to be of common concern judging by the images available on the internet) that I have examined. My eyes are pretty well-supported with a nice sleek and uptilted shape, but the deviation in spacing makes it look as though my nose is too long though it is perfectly normal and even uptilted.

I am not one to back down when my (disgustingly close-set predatory) eyes gaze upon something that I desire (wow, that could be misinterpreted in at least a couple of different rather distubring ways), and therefore I will consult with leading maxfacs about this issue as soon as I have recovered more fully from the bimax. I figure that if I survived a LeFort I BSSO combo without any issues--I was already chewing softer varieties of bread two weeks postop--I might as well take it one step further so that I may eventually grow to not loathe my visage.
