“…18 Engorgement of the superior ophthalmic vein (SOV) and decrease or reversed blood flow of SOV have also been reported in patients with GO. 19,20 Somer et al 21 further noted that the computed tomographic findings of coexistence of horizontal and vertical extraocular muscle enlargement and apical crowding of the orbit seemed to contribute to significant decreases in blood flow velocity of SOV in colour Doppler imaging study. Li et al 22 reported that the blood flow velocity in central retinal artery were significantly lower in thyroidassociated ophthalmopathy as compared to those of normal subjects.…”

“…18 Elevated episcleral venous pressure value has been demonstrated in GO, and raised retrobulbar pressure above normal venous pressure has been reported as a possible cause of reduced orbital venous drainage. 19,20 Konuk et al 21 found that the superior ophthalmic vein blood flow velocity was significantly lower in severe GO cases compared with modere and mild ones. The increase in venous pressure may lead to an elevation with IOP in some patients with GO.…”

“…Congestion of the superior orbital vein plays an important role in the inflammatory phase, as demonstrated by computed tomography (19,20,21) and color Doppler imaging studies (22,23,24,25). It has been suggested that in GO the success of the immunosuppressive treatment is the result of the effect not only on the autoimmune process but also on the reduction of orbital venous congestion.…”
