Do I Possibly Have Thyroid Eye Disease?

[Deleted member 5349]

I’ve never been a mouth breather and my maxilla can fit all my teeth including my wisdoms and I’ve never needed braces, so it’s safe to say my maxilla is well developed. Despite this, my eyes have dark circles with scleral show. I have quite pronounced cheekbones with prominent ogee curves and a straight nose, indicating good forward growth in my midface area. Is it worth getting my thyroid examined to see if I have thyroid eye disease? I feel that if my maxilla can fit all my teeth in ideal occlusion, my infraorbitals should be pretty well developed, yet I still have dark circles and scleral show.

Yeah genetics plays a role, but ultimately, poor undereye support is caused by your maxilla. Look at photos of indigenous peoples that grew up on a hard food diet, they all have insane undereye support
