Eye tracking can be used as a proxy for attention threshold toward orbitofrontal deformity. The amount of attention toward orbitofrontal AOIs increased proportionally with severity. Participants did not generally agree there was "abnormality" until deformity was severe. This study supports the assertion that surgical intervention may be best reserved for more severe deformity.
