Advice

Thyroid disorders

• Hyper thyroidism

• Hypo thyroidism

• Euthyroidism

Is the TED and Grave’s eye disease is same or

different

If eye Is involved with thyroid dysfunction then

it is termed as graves ophthalmopathy or

thyroid eye disease

Differential signs

Thyroid disorders Thyroid eye disease

1. Weight loss 1. Lid retraction

2. Low/high body temperature 2. Proptosis

3. Loss of hairs 3. Dryness

4. Tremor 4. Lagophthalmos

5. Conjunctival Congestion

Different signs

1. Dalrymple’s sign:- Widened palpebral fissure height

2. Von graefe’s sign:- Lid lag in primary gaze

3. Jelink’s sign:- Hyper pigmentation of lid

4. Rosenbach’s sign:- Tremor of the lid

5. Stellwag’s sign:- Rare blinking

6. Griffith’s sign/kocher’s sign:- Lid lag lower lid while looking upward

Thyroid Eye Disease

Active Inactive

TED is a unique autoimmune disease

Differentiating‘Active

from ‘Inactive’disease is the first step in the

management of TED

1

Clinical Activity Score

(Mourits et al)

1. Spontaneous retrobulbar pain

2. Pain on eye movement

3. Eyelid redness

4. Swelling: Eyelids

5. Conjunctival redness

6. Conjunctival Chemosis

7. Swelling: Caruncle

8. Worsening of Proptosis (3 mth)

9. Worsening of EOM

10. Worsening visual acuity (3 mth)

All ‘angry eyes’ in TED do not imply Active

phase

2

Pathogenesis

Routine Imaging is

NOT required for the diagnosis of TED

(and measurements do not provide any

additional information)

3

Imaging is required ONLY for

1.Suspected nerve compression

2.For surgical planning

3.When diagnosis is suspected

Investigations

• Vision

• Color vision

• Complete ocular examination (CAS)

• Exophthalmometry

• Pupil examination

• Schirmer’s test

Thyroid Eye Disease

1. Identifying Active Disease

2. Investigations

3. Management of Active Disease

4. Management of Stable Disease

Management of TED

• Mild disease: 90%*

• Explain Natural history

• Lubricants

• Sleep with head end raised

• Maintain Euthyroid State

* Perros P, Clin Endocrinol, 1995

Management of the Thyroid Gland

HYPER

• Anti-thyroid medications

• Radioactive Iodine

• Thyroid Surgery

HYPO

• Thyroxin

Which form of Therapy is associated with Eye Disease?

Compresive Optic Neuropathy

• Medical Management

• Surgical Management

The goal of medical treatment is to use

appropriate therapy until the patient reaches the

inactive stage

4

Thyroid Eye Disease

1. Identifying Active Disease

2. Investigations

3. Management of Active Disease

4. Management of Stable Disease

Surgical Paradigm

• Decompression

• Strabismus

• Eyelid Surgery

• Cosmesis

Surgical treatment is performed in the

inactive stage

5

Orbital Decompression

• Expansion of the orbital volume by

- Bony expansion

- Fat removal

Orbital Decompression

Message home

– Eyelid retraction is the most common feature of TED

– TED is the most common uni/bilateral proptosis, markedly asymmetric

– 90% hyper, but 6% euthyroid

– Severity is not parallel to serum level (TSH, T3, T4..), but the smoking indeed 7x

– Urgent care may be require for CON, severe proptosis cornea decompensation

– Surgery should be in order: Orbital decompression Strabismus eyelid correction
