Abstract

Purpose: To determine the clinical characteristics in a prospective study of patients with GRAVES' OPHTHALMOPATHY.Patients & Methods: We reviewed the clinical manifestations and medical records of 103 patients with GRAVES' OPHTHALMOPATHY from 2003 to 2005.Results: Out of 103 patients with GRAVES' OPHTHALMOPATHY, 48 (46.6%) male and 55 (53.3%) female (F: M=1.1), with mean age of 45 years (range; 18-73 years), 95 (92.2%) patients had Graves' HYPERTHYROIDISM, 3 (2.9%) had primary hypothyroidism, and 5 (4.8%) were euthyroid. Mean duration of ocular symptoms was 13.2 months (range 2-95 months) while mean duration of dysthyroid symptoms was 39.4 months (range 6-180 mpnths). Unilaterality occurred in 12 patients. EYELID RETRACTION was present in 90 patients (87%), whereas the approximate frequency of EXOPHTHALMOS was 77.6% (80 patients); restrictive extraocular myopathy, 29% (30 patients); evidence of extraocular enlargement on CT-scan in 52 patients of 70 patients (74%) that was evaluated, and optic nerve dysfunction, 5.8% (6 patients). 22 (21%) patients had GLAUCOMA associated with GRAVES' OPHTHALMOPATHY and 7 (6.7%) of them were normal-tension GLAUCOMA. Conclusion: EYELID RETRACTION was the most common clinical sign of GRAVES' OPHTHALMOPATHY in our patients. Larger prospective studies are suggested to evaluate both the prevalence and possible racial difference in its clinical presentation in Iranian population.
