Axial T2-weighted MRI of a 3-year-old with bilateral anophthalmia. The orbits are somewhat narrow with hypotelorism (reduced inter-orbital distance). There is bilateral anophthalmia: no globe, optic nerve, or optic nerve sheath is present (white arrows). However, the orbits do contain normal fat, lacrimal glands, and extraocular muscles. The periorbital soft tissues show no evidence of inflammation
