Intraorbital cavernous hemangiomas are the most known benign vascular tumors of the orbit in adults, however, multiple lesions diagnosed as cavernous hemangiomas in the orbits are very rarely reported. The most common presenting complaints are slowly progressive painless proptosis. They rarely present with vision impairment. Multiple cavernous hemangiomas, although rare, systemic evaluation of the patients should be done in these cases to rule out multi-centric lesions. Complete excision of the tumors should be done surgically, and the patients need to be followed on a long-term to monitor for recurrence. Here, we report a case of multiple unilateral cavernous hemangiomas in a 44-year-old male patient, who was treated as a case of neurofibroma clinically based on radiological investigations.
