A: Your son's appearance could be the result of a condition called exophthalmos, an abnormal bulging out of one or both eyes. The other term doctors use to describe the same problem is proptosis.

The eyes remain the same, but the fat and muscle around the face is diminished. This makes the eyes look like they bulge in comparison.
