Key Symptoms of Thyroid Eye Disease
orbital septum
The most significant anatomical dividing line for these infections is the (BLANK), a thin membrane stretching from the eyelids to the bony rim of the eye
Infections Affection the Orbit
(the bony socket containing the eyeball, muscles, fat, and nerves) are critical medical conditions that require rapid evaluation. The most significant anatomical dividing line for these infections is the orbital septum, a thin membrane stretching from the eyelids to the bony rim of the eye
Orbital Myositis
Dacryoadenitis
Optic Perineuritis:
Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome
Subtypes of Idiopathic Orbital Inflammatory Syndrome (IOIS)
Idiopathic Orbital Inflammatory Syndrome (IOIS)
a non-infectious, non-cancerous inflammatory condition of the eye socket that causes painful swelling and mimics a tumor.
Orbital Myositis
a rare inflammatory condition that affects one or more of the extraocular muscles—the muscles responsible for controlling eye movement.
Dacryoadenitis
Inflammation of the lacrimal gland.
Optic Perineuritis
a rare inflammatory disorder that affects specifically the outer covering (sheath) surrounding the optic nerve, while generally sparing the nerve fiber core itself.
Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome
a rare condition that causes severe, one-sided headaches and painful eye muscle weakness due to inflammation behind the eye.
Orbital pseudotumor
Other term for Idiopathic Orbital Inflammatory Syndrome (IOIS).

Classification by Hemodynamic Flow
Venous Malformations
Formerly often called “cavernous hemangioma”
Congenital vascular malformation composed of abnormally formed, dilated venous channels with slow blood flow, caused by developmental abnormalities of the venous vasculature.
A collection of wide, blood-filled spaces lined with normal cells, rather than a true growing tumor.
Distensible Venous Malformations (Orbital Varices)
Distensible, low-flow venous malformation or anomalous orbital venous channel that communicates with the orbital venous system and enlarges when venous pressure increases.
a rare, stretched vein in the eye socket that swells and causes the eye to bulge when you strain or bend forward.
