A tumor just behind the orbit!!

This is an orbital cavernous hemangioma surgical removal! This is a benign, noninfiltrative, slowly progressive vascular neoplasm that grows within the orbit and surrounded by a well-delineated fibrous capsule. Commonly found within the muscle cone, lateral to the optic nerve, and pushes the eye forward causing a bulging (proptosis) along with retinopathy, vascular damage and optic neuropathy. Treatment is usually reserved for symptomatic patients (diplopia or visual disturbance) and includes surgical excision, as seen above.
