The diagnosis can be made prenatally; routine obstetric ultrasound can identify the characteristic hypoechoic lesion inferior and medial to the globe. It is important to distinguish a<unk>  from the more serious encephalocele, which is a neural tube defect. A<unk>  can be diagnosed postpartum with a non-invasive ultrasound (US). Among the adult population, several tests can be ordered to further diagnose the condition. Initially, a physician would use a patient's medical history or any visible symptoms that can indicate of having the condition. Tests that are used to diagnose a patient include: * Examination of discharge from the eye * Blood culture * X-ray (can help diagnose skeletal abnormality) * CT Scan (useful in suspected cases of mass) * Dacryocystography (DCG) * Nasal endoscopy * Dye disappearance test: indicates if there is blockage in the eye
