    Abstract:
    A retrobulbar orbital abscess secondary to congenital dacryocystitis is extremely rare. External abscess drainage, probing, and syringing with broad spectrum intravenous antibiotics was performed in a 22-day-old neonate who was examined for congenital dacryocystitis complicated by retrobulbar orbital abscess formation.
