ABSTRACT
A 6-month-old girl came to the hospital with swelling of the right lower eyelid, exophthalmos, chemosis and upward deviation of the eyeball--all of which had been present since birth. Iris, optic disc, and chorioretinal coloboma were also apparent. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a small globe with a large cystic lesion in the orbit of the right eye. Pre- and post-operative photographs and magnetic resonance imaging indicated a safe, simple single orbital aspiration as an alternative treatment for mild microphthalmos with an orbital cyst.
