    I’ve read before that these two conditions are not related, but am confused by my Aunt and Grandmother’s response to the treatment of the thyroid:

    Both my Grandmother and my Aunt had Hyperthyroidism. At the time, it wasn’t known as Graves’ only as “toxic goiter”, but they both encountered the bulging eyes. Both underwent surgery once their goiters started to interfere with breathing. In both cases, their eye symptoms disappeared immediately, never to resurface.

    If the Thyroid function and the eye disease are not related, how did it go away in both of their cases immediately after the surgical removal of the thyroid and without any other treatment?
