This condition also is called underactive thyroid. Hypothyroidism usually isn&#8217;t linked to eye disease. In severe cases, however, hypothyroidism may cause swelling around the eyes. It also may cause a loss of hair in the outer part of the eyebrows.<\/p>\n<p>Eye problems are much more common in people who have hyperthyroidism, a condition also called overactive thyroid. That&#8217;s particularly true for those who have Graves&#8217; disease, the most common form of hyperthyroidism. An eye condition known as thyroid eye disease &mdash; also called Graves&#8217; ophthalmopathy &mdash; may develop in these individuals. It can lead to eye soreness, protruding eyeballs and vision changes.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hypothyroidism symptoms can vary, but eye problems aren&#8217;t usually a concern.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[1686,1685,1682,1684],"class_list":["post-50045","mayo","type-mayo","status-publish","hentry","tag-anatomical-structure","tag-condition","tag-person-group-concept","tag-theme-of-focus","content_type-answers"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Hypothyroidism symptoms: Can hypothyroidism cause eye problems?
