Superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis is associated with thyroid dysfimction and appears to be a prognostic marker for severe Graves ophthalmopathy. Approximately one-half of patients with superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis have eyelid retraction and one-half have eyelid lag. Whether eyelid retraction is causative or merely associated is unclear. Several patients exhibited resolution of the superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis after eyelid retraction surgery or orbital decompression. [Pg.650]
