Non-traumatic orbital pathology can often have overlapping imaging features and challenging timely diagnosis. Prompt recognition is necessary due to potential risk of permanent visual loss. In this article we present systematic evaluation of non-traumatic orbital pathology with attention to key imaging features, pathogenesis and potential complications.
