Dr. Lee Duffner of American Academy of Ophthalmology answered:Double vision often follows orbital fractures, especially blowout fractures in which a crack in the bone below the eyeball traps one or more of the muscles that move the eye. It can take several months for the double vision to resolve after corrective surgery.
