I have Graves Disease that has affected both eyes. I was learning to live with the bulge however tonight my 4 year old daughter told me it bothers her that her friends mention her mothers "big" eyes. I am considering consulting on having the orbital decompression. I already had the eyelid surgery almost 2 years ago, will that affect the orbital decompression surgery? Also I am in So Ga. Do you have a recommendation of a orbital surgeon in this area?
I had deompression surgery 6 months ago at the University of Colorado Rocky Mountain Eye Clinic. Dr. Durairaj and Dr. Kingdom do more surgeries from the midwest to Califormia and are just wonderful. They do a few of these a week because people come from all over to have them do the surgery. I highly, hilghy recommend. They both have additional training just in this area.
TED=thyroid eye disease No reason ambien should help other than an 'idiosyncratic' reaction (strange reaction to your chemistry). Suggest you see another center that has an oculoplastic orbital surgery team for another opinion.
