In this study the results showed a mean orbital height and width of 34.7±2.7 and 39.6±1.4 on the right side. In the left side the mean orbital height of34.2±2.4 and width of 39.5±1.7 was recorded. A mean orbital index of 88.3 is evaluated from the values of analysis. The conclusion of this study revealed a Mesoseme type of orbital aperture.
