Description |
Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) is marked by progressive bilateral ptosis and reduction in ocular motility without other systemic symptoms of mitochondrial dysfunction.1 Conversely thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) may present with diplopia and restricted extraocular motility, but has associated eyelid retraction along with inflammatory signs including conjunctival redness, eyelid edema, and proptosis.2 We describe a case referred to oculoplastics as concern for TAO, but a diagnosis of CPEO was ultimately made. |
