10 Ways to Improve Your Thyroid Eye Disease (TED)
Significant advances in the medical
and surgical treatment of Thyroid Eye Disease have been achieved over
the last few years. However the psychological and social aspects of the
disease are largely neglected.
Recent studies show that patients
with moderate to severe Graves'
Disease ophthalmopathy have
significant mood disturbance, especially when disfiguring
signs are predominant.
The choices now-a-days, available for
treating Thyroid Eye Disease and it’s symptoms like bulging eyes, double
vision, and protruded eyes can be summarized as follows:
7.
Humidifiers in your room
8.
Wear good sunglasses that are really protecting your eyes (not
the ones that you buy for $5, because they are not really protecting
your eyes from anything)
9.
Corrective surgery to loosen the eyelids
10.
Decompression surgery
11.
Steroids and prisms (to correct double vision)
The last
3 are used only in severe cases where nothing else can help.

...She avoided an eye
surgery and saw improvement in just 2 1/2 weeks!
Hi Svetla,
I just wanted to let you
know that I have been taking the flax seed oil and using my eye
drops for about 2 1/2 weeks now and I can already tell a difference
-I do not have
all of the pain in my eyes that I was having and I can tell by touch
that my eyes are not protruding as much.
I am going to the eye
doctor next week. I am anxious to see how much my
measurements have improved, because I know they have. I just
wanted to say thanks for your information, because I was not looking
forward to that horrible sounding eye surgery.
Thanks,
Stacy P.

I believe that once your symptoms are
under control and your test are in normal range your eyes will start to
improve. So besides treating the symptoms I would recommend treating the
cause of Graves’ Disease
as well.

"I
don't have any questions yet, but I just wanted to say, "THANK YOU".
I
feel such relief and great joy as I skim through your books. I really am
crying. I know you know what I mean when I say that I have felt all
alone and misunderstood for years.
Your site, and now the books, have lifted my spirits and will to new
heights. Thank you."
