Overview

Orbital cellulitis may be classified according to the microbial family of the offending pathogen (bacterial vs. fungal), or by the management protocol (medical vs. surgical therapy). In 1970, Chandler's classification was created to describe five groups of orbital complications of sinusitis. This system is often used to describe the extent of orbital and periorbital disease.[1]

Classification

Orbital cellulitis may be classified as follows:
