From Bulging Eyes to a TOP Look! Thyroid Eye Disease

A case of thyroid eye disease. What bothers you most since the thyroid issue started? From this eye—this left eye—feeling off? Yes, this opening… look at me a second: does it gape too much here? Yes.


What had it caused? Bulging eyes, one eye more open than the other (the left), a buildup of swelling on the upper and lower eyelids; plus, with age, there had already been extra skin and bags forming, which got worse with thyroid eye disease.

So there’s also a physical discomfort? Dryness, internal irritation and then, aesthetically, the look… You can’t even bear to look at it. No, no. Orbital decompression, correction of upper eyelid retraction, and an upper blepharoplasty.

A blepharoplasty to lift the eyelids and reduce eye exposure. Now everything is neat and clean, almost perfectly symmetrical—below, perfect. Look up: the eyes look like a young woman’s. Top! I’m super happy.

Hi, Doc! After the eye surgery: top! Really, just the best. And after the filler and Botox: top, top—the cherry on the cake. Bye!
