16y FS Siamese with bilateral conjunctival and episcleral hyperemia, corneal ulcerations, and reduced extraocular muscle function.
Images a–d are at the same anatomic level. Image e is somewhat more ventral and highlights the caudoventral recesses of the orbits.
There is pronounced thickening of the sclera and episcleral tissues, which is best seen on the contrast‐enhanced images (d–f: arrows).
Periorbital edema is also evident on the STIR image (c: arrows). There is a loss of thickening of the extraocular muscles and loss of muscle
