Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Thyroid eye disease (TED) has a complex etiology, with smoking identified as a contributing factor.
  • TED management requires a multidisciplinary approach involving endocrinology and ophthalmology specialists.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evaluation and treatment of strabismus associated with thyroid eye disease.
  • To highlight literature published in 2006 concerning TED-related strabismus.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent literature, with a focus on studies published in 2006.
  • Examination of current and emerging surgical strategies for strabismus correction in TED patients.

Main Results:

  • The etiology of TED is multifactorial, with ongoing research into causative factors like smoking.
