Mesothelioma often spreads locally to adjacent organs and surfaces, with hematogenous spread being rare. Orbital metastases are very uncommon in mesothelioma, with only a few reported cases. These usually occur in very advanced disease and affected patients have a poor prognosis. Radiotherapy is the mainstay of treatment, with tumour resection to alleviate physical symptoms and for emergent indications.
