₹875
Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy is a premier NABL & NABH Accredited Diagnostic Centre to book your X-Ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views. High-tech digital X-ray capabilities for producing Posteroanterior (PA) and Lateral images of the orbits (eye sockets) allow doctors to identify orbital fractures, foreign bodies, bone abnormalities, and other conditions in the eye area. Our highly qualified radiologists deliver accurate imaging under very low exposure of radiation and timely reporting that aids in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
About X-Ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views
X-ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views is a specific X-ray that takes detailed images of the eye sockets twice, from different angles. The Lateral view is a side view of the orbital structures, and the PA view is a frontal view. These views combined are going to be a reliable reference to check the orbital bones, the margin of the eye orbit, frontal bone, maxillary bones, zygomatic bones, and other structures around the face. At Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, we rely on cutting-edge digital radiography equipment that creates extremely detailed pictures for accurate diagnosis of injuries that persist in the orbit and other types of bone problems in the face area.
What is an X-Ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views?
An X-ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views is a painless, quick, and non-invasive imaging examination for assessment of the bones around the eyes. These views are useful for the physician to demonstrate the alignment of the bones and evaluate the presence of fractures, foreign bodies, and orbital structure abnormalities. This test is typically done if someone has trouble seeing out of one eye or any pain, swelling, or facial trauma affecting the eye area.
Common Reasons for an X-Ray Orbit PA & Lateral Views
- Injury around the eye due to a fall, accident, or trauma
- Suspected orbital fracture
- Facial bone injury
- Swelling or tenderness around the eyes
- Suspected foreign body in or around the orbit
- Persistent pain around the eye socket
- Evaluation before or after orbital surgery
- Assessment of facial bone abnormalities

Foreign Body Detection
Helps identify radiopaque foreign objects present around the orbit.
Facial Bone Injuries
Evaluates associated injuries involving the zygomatic bone, maxilla, and surrounding facial structures.
Bone Abnormalities
Helps detect structural changes, lesions, or other abnormalities affecting the orbital bones.
Congenital Orbital Abnormalities
Evaluates developmental changes involving the eye socket and facial bones.
Post-Traumatic and Post-Surgical Changes
Monitors healing following fractures, orbital procedures, or facial surgeries.
