Acquired Epiblepharon Alleviated With Teprotumumab Treatment in Active Thyroid Eye Disease Patient.

A 46-year-old Asian female patient with thyroid eye disease reported ocular irritation, eyelid swelling, diplopia, and pain with eye movement. The patient was diagnosed with active thyroid eye disease and secondary thyroid eye disease-acquired epiblepharon, which was causing bilateral punctate epithelial erosion. Treatment was started with newly U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved teprotumumab, an insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor inhibitor. Four infusion treatments later, the patient's epiblepharon was alleviated with minimal side effects. In this report, the authors present a case of thyroid eye disease-acquired epiblepharon resolving with teprotumumab treatment.
