I’ll sing my favorite refrain: It’s never a bad idea to visit an Ophthalmologist and get a baseline exam done. You’re well prepared for such an initial consultation with the Ophthalmologist because your Endo measured your eyes initially. You should take that report with you when (if you decide to) you see an Ophthalmologist. That said, the Ophthalmologist will most likely not rely on the Endo’s measurements, because each person measures the way that person measures: only a comparison of Doctor A’s measurements June 1 are a good comparison base for Doctor A’s measurements on July 30. Your Endo’s measurements are useful, though, as an accompaniment to any notes she/he made in your chart about the assessment of your eyes.
Please remember that you need to get a referral to an Ophthalmologist, who treats diseases of the eyes. Your Optician or Optometrist are not qualified to diagnose TED, nor to perform the full range of measurements and tests needed for a clinical diagnosis.
Good luck. I hope that you, like most people with Graves, do not suffer from TED. Getting a baseline exam now and meeting your Ophthalmologist is a good thing to do to prepare for the possibility (however slim) that you might someday go through this.
Blessings.
