In Praise of Precision: Esoglobus and Exoglobus

摘要

Precise description of clinical findings is a sine qua non of effective communication and documentation in medicine. To that end, there have not, to date, been accurate words to describe lateral or medial displacement of the globe. Such displacements are frequently seen with orbital disease. The author makes a case for the use of esoglobus and exoglobus to describe such displacements.
