Exophthalmos Inflammatory

Inflammatory exophthalmos, also known as orbital cellulitis or orbital abscess, is a serious condition that can lead to blurred vision and other complications if not treated promptly.

Orbital cellulitis is an inflammation of the tissues around the eye, which can spread to the orbit and cause exophthalmos, i.e. protrusion of the eye from the socket. This can happen due to infection, which can occur as a result of injury, surgery, or infection spreading from other parts of the body.

Symptoms of exophthalmos inflammatory may include redness, swelling and pain around the eye, as well as decreased vision, double vision and ocular movement, which may be limited. If you notice such symptoms, you should consult a doctor immediately.

To diagnose inflammatory exophthalmos, your doctor may perform a physical examination and also order additional tests, such as a CT scan or MRI of the orbit, to determine the extent of the infection and assess damage to the tissue around the eye.

Treatment for exophthalmos inflammatory may include the use of antibiotics to fight the infection, as well as the use of anti-inflammatory medications to reduce swelling and pain. In some cases, surgery may be required to remove pus or damaged tissue around the eye.

In general, inflammatory exophthalmos is a serious disease that requires immediate medical intervention. If you suspect orbital cellulitis or other eye diseases, you should consult a doctor for professional advice and treatment.
