CASE REPORT OF IDIOPATHIC BILATERAL ORBITAL MYOSITIS

Orbital myositis is an inflammatory disease affecting extraocular muscles. Mostly unilateral and rarely bilateral orbital involvement is seen. Bilateral involvement is a secondary table to systemic diseases and recurrence can be seen. Diagnosis is made by clinical, examination and imaging. Increased...
