A positive history of fever, proptosis, eyelid edema and erythema, and painful or restricted ocular movements is suggestive of orbital cellulitis. Additionally, patients with orbital cellulitis often have a recent history of rhinosinusitis, upper respiratory tract infection, facial insect bite, orbital surgery or trauma, tooth abscess, or otitis media.
