I have hyperthyroidism and Graves' disease, which is causing severe eye pain and protruding eyes. I am currently using Lubex eye drops, but will my eyes return to their normal size, and what other medicines should I take to treat this?

With proper treatment, your eye symptoms can improve, though they may not fully return to their original size without medical intervention. Lubex drops only soothe dryness; they do not treat the underlying inflammation of Thyroid Eye Disease (TED). To treat this, your doctors may recommend: 1. Antithyroid medications to stabilize your thyroid. 2. Corticosteroids (like prednisone) to reduce acute pain and swelling. 3. Tepezza (teprotumumab), a targeted infusion therapy specifically proven to reduce eye bulging. 4. Selenium supplements. Please consult your endocrinologist and an ophthalmologist immediately, as severe eye pain requires urgent evaluation to protect your vision.
