Thyroid Eye Disease (TED), also known as thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy or Graves orbitopathy, affects the soft tissues surrounding the eyeball within the eye socket. The condition is characterized by periods of inflammation and swelling, followed by an inactive stage. While commonly associated with hyperthyroidism, TED can also occur with hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's disease, or even in individuals with a normally functioning thyroid gland. The Thyroid Eye Center of Gulf Coast provides expert care and support to help patients navigate the complexities of TED and improve their eye health and overall well-being.
