Key Points

This research aims to explore the incidence and clinical characteristics of thyroid eye disease (TED) in patients with ocular myasthenia gravis (MG).
Identified clinical features of patients with concurrent TED and MG.
Analyzed atypical signs such as ptosis and exotropia.
Assessed diurnal variability in symptoms.
Identified common overlapping features between TED and MG.
Atypical signs were noted to complicate diagnosis.
Heightened suspicion required when encountering specific symptoms.

Abstract

Concurrent TED and MG, while rare, present overlapping features that can complicate diagnosis. Atypical signs, such as ptosis with diurnal variability and exotropia with vertical misalignment in TED patients, should raise suspicion for MG.
