An orbital blowout fracture is a fracture or break in the small bones that make up your eye. The orbit, or eye socket, is the cavity of the skull that holds the eye. An orbital blowout can occur when an object strikes the orbit with blunt force. This injury is commonly the result of a fist, baseball or tennis ball that strikes the eye. The bony orbit's job is to protect the eyeball.
1 Orbital pain is described as a deep, dull ache behind or in the eye. This pain is often caused by diseases of the eye.  Acute angle closure glaucoma can cause orbital pain, although most cases of glaucoma are of the open-angle variety and are painless.
