Exophthalmos is another term for proptosis, which is the protrusion or bulging of one or both eyes out of the eye sockets. Blepharitis is inflammation of the eyelids, dacryocystitis is inflammation of the tear sac, and conjunctivitis is inflammation of the conjunctiva (the clear tissue that covers the white part of the eye and lines the inside of the eyelids). None of these conditions are synonymous with exophthalmos.
