A year ago, Ms. Cheng, who lives in Xinzhou District, Wuhan, began to have a prominent right eye, and some unexplained tears and visual discomfort appeared. At that time, she didn't care, thinking it was genetic, because Ms. Cheng's father had a protruding eye. Later, Ms. Cheng's exophthalmos became more and more severe, which seriously affected her appearance and life, and her right eye vision became worse and worse. Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Ms. Cheng's son took his mother to the lacrimal and orbital diseases department of an eye hospital in Wuhan.

The examination found that Ms. Cheng's exophthalmos was caused by a huge tumor in the orbit, which was twice as big as the normal eyeball and had severely oppressed the optic nerve. Surgery should be performed immediately to protect the eyeball and vision.

Important nerves and blood vessels in the orbit are gathered here. The huge tumor has no capsule and the nerves are complex. If you are not careful, the patient will face serious consequences such as blindness, eyeball deviation and ptosis, which greatly improves the difficulty coefficient of the operation. After repeated research, the doctors worked out a surgical plan for Ms. Cheng, combining the inside and outside of the right eye under the microscope, plus orbital space-occupying resection.

The operation lasted nearly three hours, and the huge tumor was divided into three pieces and removed in turn. During the operation, the doctor also took out three "pearls" from Ms. Cheng's eyes-venous stones (stones), which successfully saved Ms. Cheng's vision.

The doctor stressed: "There are often no obvious symptoms in the initial stage of eye tumors. If exophthalmos, vision loss, eye movement disorder and unexplained congestion, edema and tears occur, you should go to a professional eye hospital in time. Once diagnosed as a space occupying lesion, surgery should be performed as soon as possible. "
