Thyroid eye disease: If you have severe exposure keratopathy, they you may consider orbital decompression and/or levator recession. We sometimes use ear cartilage to elevate the lower lids. In my hands three wall orbital decompression is the way to go, however, without knowing your findings, it is very difficult to recommend any procedure. You should consult a local oculoplstic surgeon of late vintage for best result
