Summary: ABSTRACT: This is a case of a 66-year-old female who presented with painless, progressive axial proptosis, vision loss, chemosis, and tearing of the left eye. Ocular exam on the right eye was unremarkable with best corrected visual acuity of 20/20. On the left eye, ocular examination revealed visual acuity of no light perception (NLP), extra ocular muscle (EOM) restriction, relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD), left eye proptosis of 20 mm, and optic nerve pallor. Plain Orbital CT Scan showed Orbital Mass T/C Meningioma. Lateral Orbitotomy for Excision of Orbital Mass was done for palliative comfort. Histopathology diagnosis is also Orbital Meningioma. One month postoperatively, Proptosis of the left eye was reduced to 14 mm with improvement of visual acuity to hand movement. Two months postoperatively, proptosis of the left eye was further reduced to 9 mm with noticed improvement of the visual acuity to counting finger at 1 foot. Three months post operatively, patient had improvement of the optic nerve pallor.
