(a) Preoperative clinical photography shows the significant proptosis and inferolateral displacement of right eye. (b) CT scan of initial presentation shows well-demarcated enhancing intraconal vascular tumor in the right orbit. (c) 14 years later, MRI showing hypointense masses on T1-weighted sequence and hyperintense on T2-weighted sequence and demonstrating dense contrast enhancement. The optic nerve is surrounded and compressed by tumor (black arrow).
