The eye offers a rare window where surgical anatomy, neurology, and systemic disease intersect visibly. This episode explores orbital anatomy, ocular trauma, infection, tumours, and inflammatory conditions affecting vision and eye movement.
We discuss red-flag presentations such as proptosis, diplopia, and acute visual loss, alongside the surgical and multidisciplinary management of orbital disease. Particular attention is paid to how eye findings reflect broader pathology — from raised intracranial pressure to autoimmune disease.
This chapter teaches clinicians to look carefully — not just at the eye, but through it — using vision as a diagnostic guide rather than an isolated organ system.
