object using the below query SELECT owner, table_name, column_name,segment_name FROM dba_lobs WHERE table_name ='<TABLE_NAME>' Then find the size of the segment name in dba_segments select bytes from dba_segments where segment_name='<LOB_OBJECT_NAME>' Now find the actual size of large object using the following query select sum(dbms_lob.getlength (<<segment name>>)) from <table_name>; then if there is much difference then we can shrink the segment alter table table_name modify lob (column_name) (shrink space);
