Proptosis
Proptosis, also known as exophthalmos, is an eye condition characterized by an abnormal protrusion of the eyeball out of the orbit. This bulging of the eye can be unilateral (affecting only one eye) or bilateral (affecting both eyes), and it is often a sign of an underlying health problem.
You should know that Bellevue clinics have all the latest technologies available to diagnose and monitor proptosis cases.
