Thyroid Eye Disease: A Case Report, Review of Current Literature and Usefulness of Joint Specialist Clinics

Parijat DeY

Grave’s disease is a common endocrine condition often associated with eye disease resulting in Graves’ orbitopathy (GO). We report a case of GO which was successfully managed in a combined thyroid eye disease (TED) specialist clinic. We also review the literature and discuss diagnostic criteria for GO, EUGOGO severity classification, Amsterdam declaration for prevention and care of TED and the UK TEAMeD audit survey, recommendations and combined specialist TED clinics to improve outcome for TED patients.
