It is most commonly discussed as part of emergency care for sudden, dangerous eye socket pressure. Clinicians also use it in selected eyelid and orbital procedures to change eyelid tension or access tissues. The goal is to protect eye function or improve surgical exposure by reducing tightness at the eyelid corner."}
