Purpose:To report a case of spontaneous enophthalmos and bulging of medial orbital wall towards the ethmoid sinus. Case:A 76-year-old male presented with enophthalmos of his left eye since 6months before. He had had no history of trauma or surgery to the head,nose,or paranasal sinus. Findings:The left eye showed enophthalmos by 2mm when compared with the right eye. Ptosis of upper eyelid was also present. He showed normal ocular motility and had no diplopia. Computed tomography showed bulging of medial orbital wall and soft orbital tissue towards the left ethmoid sinus. Surgery was refused by the patient. Conclusion:Age-related weakening of bony orbit may have induced bulging of medial orbital wall in the present case. This condition is to be included in the differential diagnosis of enophthalmos.
