| Description |
Amyloidosis is a variety of disorders caused by the abnormal deposition of insoluble protein in extracelluar space of tissues or organs. It is an uncommon condition and primary orbital involvement is extremely rare. The presentation of primary orbital amyloidosis highly varies, which commonly delays the correct diagnosis. We present a case of primary localized orbital amyloidosis presenting with diplopia. |
