AB  - Acute  orbital  compartment  syndrome  is  defined  as  an  acute  elevation  of  intraorbital  pressure  with  resultant  rapid  ocular  dysfunction.  Patients  typically  present  with  ocular  pain,  proptosis,  and  blurry  vision.  Clinical  signs  of  an  acute  orbital  compartment  syndrome  include  decreased  visual  acuity,  elevated  intraocular  pressure  (>40  mmHg),  an  afferent  papillary  defect,  chemosis,  mydriasis,  diminished  retropulsion  of  the  affected  globe  to  direct  manual  pressure,  ophthalmoplegia,  and  fundoscopic  signs  of  retinal  ischemia  (rare).1–28
