Hi, I have heard and learned more about it when my brother got it, four years ago. Orbital Inflammatory Pseudo Tumor Disease is a rare disease manifested as inflammation occurring within the orbit that looks like a neoplasm. An abrupt onset of diffuse pain is often seen in patients. Some of patients report to orbital pain in certain compartments associated with double vision (diplopia). Other symptoms include a restricted range of motion of the eye, and swelling and reddening of the eyelid. There are many kinds of orbital inflammation, and they need to be checked before this diagnose is established.
