Abstract

Thyroid eye disease (TED) is the most important extra-thyroidal manifestation of the most common autoimmune disease worldwide. In this review, we summarized its clinical features into 5D and its management into 8S. We also shared our past 6 years’ experience of managing nearly 700 TED patients in the first thyroid eye clinic in Hong Kong.
