Abstract
OBJECTIVE
The aim was to raise awareness among surgeons performing orbital surgery of the risk of hemorrhage associated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
STUDY DESIGN

RESULTS

CONCLUSION
Surgeons should be aware of the increased risk of hemorrhage among patients on selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors who require orbital surgery.
