مستخلص: Orbital metastasis is a rare entity in oncology. With increasing awareness and advancement, patients with initial ocular presentation can be diagnosed and treated. Ocular metastasis is more common in breast cancer followed by lung cancer. Lung cancer with ocular presentation generally have poor prognosis because of difficult diagnosis, Vision impairment and delayed management. Here, we report one such case of 59 year old female presented with painful periorbital swelling in left eye for 3 months with no pulmonary symptoms. On evaluation, she was diagnosed as ocular metastasis with primary being lung adenocarcinoma. Through this case, we enlighten the epidemiology, presentation, clinical features and evaluation of such patients which might help clinicians in further management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
