Mild Bulging Disc Definition
Bulging eyes is the abnormal protrusion (bulging out) of one or both eyeballs.
Alternative Names
Protruding eyes; Exophthalmos; Proptosis; Bulging eyes
Considerations
Prominent eyes may be a family trait. However, prominent eyes are not the same as bulging eyes. Bulging eyes should receive immediate attention.
Bulging of a single eye, especially in a child, is a very serious sign and should be evaluated immediately.
