Abstract
The ocular manifestations in 125 thyrotoxic patients observed for 6-20 years are presented. The incidence and development of ophthalmopathy in three different treatment group medical- (.eta. = 72), radionuclear (.eta. = 36) and surgical (.eta. = 17) are showed. The degree of ophthalmopathy is similar in all groups, and no statistically significant difference is found in the development of ophthalmopathy.Keywords
