Abstract: Thyroid eye disease (TED) is the most common orbital disease in adults, and it is an organ-specific autoimmune inflammation closely related to thyroid disease. The clinical manifestations of TED are complex, including abnormal eyelid position such as eyelid recession and ptosis in one or both eyes. Severe eyelid recession can lead to exposed corneal ulcers. For TED eyelid complications, drug or surgical treatment is performed according to disease progression to reconstruct the patient's ocular surface appearance and achieve anatomical and social function reduction.

Key words: Thyroid eye disease, Eyelid disease, Pharmacotherapy, Surgical treatment
