Assessment of the orbit for orbital trauma is best achieved expeditiously with CT in the determination of extent of injury and the presence of foreign body. MR imaging has a limited role but is valuable in examining the optic nerve and globe for injury and has proven to be an adjunct modality in the assessment of orbital injury.

Introduction: Superior orbital fissure syndrome (SOFS) is a rare condition that involves damage to multiple structures within the superior orbital fissure, often caused by trauma, inflammation, or tumors. Lung adenocarcinoma, known for its propensity to metastasize, can lead to orbital metastases, which can manifest as SOFS. This case underscores the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with such rare metastatic presentations.

Bilateral preseptal cellulitis without accompanying sinusitis or skin trauma is uncommon. In this report, we present a case of bilateral preseptal cellulitis and an upper eyelid abscess in an otherwise healthy child. A nine-year-old girl presented with severe and progressive bilateral swelling of the upper lids that showed an unsatisfactory response to medical treatments (intravenous ceftazidime and vancomycin) and warranted a referral to our facility.

Introduction: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) originates from undifferentiated mesenchymal cells that give rise to striated muscles. The symptoms of para-meningeal RMS often resemble those of allergic rhinosinusitis, including nasal congestion, mucus discharge, headache, and occasional nosebleeds. We report a child with atypical clinical presentation of ocular hypertropia secondary to para-meningeal RMS.

Purpose: To evaluate the role of computed tomography-dacryocystography (CT-DCG) in the management of traumatic secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) and study its correlation with the intra-operative findings.
Methods: Retrospective interventional case series. Eighty-five lacrimal drainage systems (LDS) of 79 patients diagnosed with traumatic SALDO, who underwent pre-operative CT-DCG, between January 2019 and June 2023, were analyzed.
