Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy
Thyroid associated orbitopathy/ophthalmopathy is an autoimmune disorder. It is most prevalent among females and is usually associated with thyroid dysfunction. Clinical manifestations include soft tissue signs, lid retraction, lid lag, proptosis, restrictive myopathy, corneal exposure and optic neuropathy. Thyroid function tests, thyroid antibodies and

[Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy].
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy is a local autoimmune reaction in the orbit. Typical signs are retraction of the eyelid, periorbital oedema, proptosis and impaired eye motility. Exposure keratopathy or compression of the optic nerve may be a complication.

(131)I and thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Radioiodine ((131)I) used to obtain euthyroidism in thyrotoxic patients is suspected of having a worsening or provoking effect on thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), an autoimmune disease closely related to Graves' disease. DESIGN: This review summarises the existing literature and describes risk factors influencing the course of TAO ...

Teprotumumab Treatment for Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy [PDF]
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), an autoimmune process affecting the tissues surrounding the eye, most commonly develops in individuals with Graves’ disease. It is disfiguring, can cause vision loss, and dramatically lessens the quality of life in patients.
