Radical cystectomy with ileal conduit diversion remains the standard treatment for invasive bladder cancer.

The orbit is an infrequent site of metastasis from bladder cancer cells. To the best of our knowledge, there are fewer than 10 case reports of orbital metastasis from urothelial carcinoma reported in the English medical literature.
