The protrusion of the right eye is obviously larger than the left eye may be caused by the tumor of the eyeball, infection and inflammation, endocrine, as well as trauma, high myopia and other reasons.
There are many reasons why one side of the right eye protrudes more than the other. Under normal circumstances, the protrusion of the eyeball is between 12 and 14 mm, and the difference in the protrusion of the two eyes is more than 2 mm and the bilateral eyeball is more than 22 mm, which is considered abnormal.
Various tumors that occur in the eye can cause unilateral protrusion, such as orbital rhabdomyosarcoma, hemangioma, and orbital osteoma.
In addition, orbital fractures due to unilateral trauma, inflammation or abscess of the adjacent orbital fascia and orbital tissues, and high myopia can also lead to abnormal protrusion of the eyeball. Examples include orbital cellulitis, orbital fasciitis, abscesses in the frontal sinus of the sieve sinus, and high myopia with abnormal growth of the eye axis.
It is recommended that for sudden or continuous rapid progression of protruding eyeballs, it is necessary to consult a doctor in time, improve the orbital CT and other auxiliary examinations, and follow the doctor’s instructions to deal with the specific situation accordingly.
