ABSTRACT Background Thyroid‐associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) may lead to severe exophthalmos and dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON), which can threaten visual function. Orbital decompression surgery is often required when medical therapy is insufficient; however, traditional deep lateral wall decompression techniques remain associated with several ...

The psychosocial and clinical outcomes following orbital decompression surgery for thyroid eye disease and predictors of change in quality of life [PDF]
Objective: Thyroid eye disease (TED) has been found to reduce quality of life for many patients due to changes in their appearance and vision, although some appear to adjust better than others. This study was designed to investigate whether a patient’s

Endoscopic orbital decompression for Graves' ophthalmopathy [PDF]
Graves’ disease may occasionally result in significant proptosis that is either cosmetically unacceptable or causes visual loss. This has traditionally been managed surgically by external decompression of the orbital bony skeleton. Trans-nasal endoscopic
