Can graves disease cause temporary blindess in one eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, URGENT: If you have temporary blindness from graves disease, you may have compressive optic neuropathy. This is a very urgent problem, seek evaluation immediately, otherwise the eye may go blind permanently.
