Baily & Love 49: The Eye and Orbit

The eye offers a rare window where surgical anatomy, neurology, and systemic disease intersect visibly. This episode explores orbital anatomy, ocular trauma, infection, tumours, and inflammatory conditions affecting vision and eye movement.We discuss red-flag presentations such as proptosis, diplopia, and acute visual loss, alongside the surgical and multidisciplinary management of orbital disease. Particular attention is paid to how eye findings reflect broader pathology — from raised intracranial pressure to autoimmune disease.This chapter teaches clinicians to look carefully — not just at the eye, but through it — using vision as a diagnostic guide rather than an isolated organ system. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit drmanaankarray.substack.com/subscribe
