Atlanta,United States - September 15, 2022 /PressCable/ —

A new education and awareness campaign focused on Graves’ disease, also known as thyroid eye disease, has been launched by Dr. Harvey “Chip” Cole III, MD, FACS, Quadruple Board Certified Surgeon, an expert in the field with more than 33 years of experience.

More information about Dr. Harvey “Chip” Cole III, Graves’ disease, and treatment options can be found at https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-harvey-chip-cole-iii-md-facs-5a86649a

The new campaign covers common causes, symptoms, and treatments for Graves’ disease, explained by an oculoplastic surgeon, Dr. Chip Cole. It explains that, while some cases are mild and easy to treat, severe cases can threaten a patient’s vision and require surgical intervention.

As this is an immune system disorder, the campaign explains that the symptoms of Graves’ disease can vary widely, but often includes swelling behind a patient’s eyes. Dr. Chip Cole explains the surgical procedure required to relieve pressure placed on the optic nerve by this swelling, and how it can be accomplished with minimal risks and scarring.

Some of the most common symptoms of Graves’ disease affecting a patient’s eyes are examined, including bulging or painful eyes, double vision, and puffy or retracted eyelids. There are several treatment options mentioned, and Dr. Chip Cole explains that determining the best treatment is individual for each patient, as the swelling can affect their eyes in different ways.

Dr. Chip Cole explains that there are several ways to treat Graves’ disease by blocking the thyroid from producing hormones. Many of these treatment options include patients requiring medication for the rest of their lives.

The campaign also includes information about the recovery process from surgical interventions and the most common complications. While most patients suffer from some swelling for the first 4 to 6 weeks, the surgery is relatively safe when performed by a qualified professional.

Dr. Chip Cole has become known internationally as “The Eye Guy,” for his expertise in oculoplastic rejuvenation and reconstruction, after completing more than 33,000 surgeries over 33 years. He provides a wide range of public awareness campaigns, cosmetic surgery risk assessments, and educational lectures both nationally and internationally.

The plague isn’t history. Where it still exists, how it spreads and a cure

To most, the plague is an ancient nightmare, a scourge that wiped out tens of millions in medieval Europe and killed more than 20,000 people in colonial Hong Kong between 1894 and 1929. A recent death at a plague research facility in Siberia is a stark reminder that the bacterium that causes it, Yersinia pestis, was never eradicated. While modern medicine has transformed the former “Black Death” into an easily treatable bacterial infection, the disease continues to circulate quietly across the...

Why freaky shoes from Saint Laurent, Chanel and Dior are trending

There is something quite deliciously subversive about a freaky shoe. Feet of course already hold a hint of perversion – some people are really into them, while others find them repellent. But shod those feet in a shoe that people can find both compelling and strange? Well actually, that’s fashion catnip. Visceral proof can be found in those who have made the freaky shoe their signature, such as the aristocratic, enigmatic and entirely iconic Daphne Guinness, who always wears a pair of...
