- Abstract: Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is a refractory orbital disease.The pathogenesis of Western medicine is complex and diverse,and it is difficult to take into account all aspects of medication.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)pays attention to the overall concept and syndrome differentiation and treatment,which has certain advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of TAO.The theory of"liver opens at the eyes"in TCM suggests that abnormal liver function is involved in the entire stage of TAO onset.This article summarizes and discusses the dialectical treatment approach of treating TAO from the perspective of physiological basis,key pathological mechanisms,and general principles of treatment,which hope to expand the clinical diagnosis and treatment ideas of TCM for TAO,and leverage the advantages of TCM in TAO prevention and control.
