The Psychosocial and Clinical Outcomes of Orbital Decompression Surgery for Thyroid Eye Disease and Predictors of Change in Quality of Life
Thyroid eye disease (TED) has been found to reduce quality of life for many patients because of changes in their appearance and vision, although some seem to adjust better than others. This study was designed to investigate whether a patient's quality of life changes after having orbital decompression for improvement of appearance, vision, or both, and whether any demographic, clinical, or psychosocial factors can predict which patients might benefit from this surgery.
