👉 Hyperapophysis is a term used in medical terminology and anatomy to describe a region of the eye that appears bulging or protruding. It typically occurs due to an abnormal growth of eyelid tissue, usually caused by an underdeveloped or absent gland called the lacrimal gland. This can lead to a bulge at the back of the eye known as hyperaethyseis. The term is often used in conjunction with other terms such as lacrimal gland hyperplasia
