Ep. 199: Your Thyroid & Eye Health: What Your Vision May Be Telling You

In this episode from Paloma Health, we dive into the surprising connection between thyroid disorders and your eye health. Whether you’re dealing with dry, blurry eyes, bulging eyes, or double vision, your thyroid could be playing a role.

Learn more about how hypothyroidism — often caused by Hashimoto’s thyroiditis — can lead to dry, irritated eyes, and how hyperthyroidism, especially in Graves’ disease, can result in more serious vision problems like thyroid eye disease (TED).

We also discuss important questions like:

• Can Synthroid cause eye issues?

• What does yellow skin around the eyes really mean?

• Can you have both hypothyroidism and TED at the same time?

• What’s the link between Sjogren’s syndrome and Hashimoto’s?

If your eyes are sending signals, it might be time to look deeper — at your thyroid! Tune in to learn how to protect your vision and manage symptoms with proper thyroid care.
