Clinic Overview

The Center for Thyroid Eye Disease provides innovative, multidisciplinary care using the latest diagnostic and treatment options. Our team is comprised of a neuro-ophthalmologist, adult strabismologist, orbital and oculoplastic surgeon and orthoptist, all dedicated to providing a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan to patients in one visit.
 

Conditions we treat

• Graves' disease
• Thyroid eye disease

Treatments

• Orbital decompression – removal of orbital fat and reshaping of the orbital walls to reduce bulging of the eyes associated with thyroid eye disease
• Strabismus surgery – repositioning of the eyes to reduce and/or eliminate double vision associated with thyroid eye disease
• Eyelid surgery – repositioning of the eyelid to improve appearance and reduce dryness of the eyes associated with thyroid eye disease
• Steroid injections – given into the orbit to reduce swelling, bulging, and double vision associated with rapid progression in thyroid eye disease
