Histopathological evaluation of orbital and ocular lesions: A cross-sectional study

Orbital and ocular lesions encompass a variety of inflammatory, congenital, benign and malignant conditions, often with overlapping clinical features that make diagnosis challenging. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the histological spectrum of these lesions and correlate the findings with clinical diagnoses. It was conducted over 18 months in a tertiary care teaching hospital using histopathological examination of surgically removed specimens. Results showed that non-neoplastic lesions were most common, followed by benign and malignant tumors. This study advances knowledge by emphasizing the importance of histopathology as the gold standard for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
