What is exophthalmos?

Exophthalmos (also known as proptosis or bulging eye) is the abnormal protrusion of the eye from its socket. It can be congenital – some people are just born with naturally protruded eyes, or prominent eyes – or it can develop over time, usually in conjunction with other health problems (thyroid dysfunction in particular). The eye socket is made up of four bones, all tasked with the role of protecting the eye. If there is not enough space in the socket, namely if the back portion of the socket is too narrow, the eyeball will protrude.
