abstract = {To determine the prevalence of conjunctivochalasis in
patients with immune thyroid diseases, to determine whether
there is any association between the 2 diseases, and to
determine cytologic study of conjunctivochalasis through the
cytology impression test.A clinical prospective cohort study
carried out by the External Diseases Department in the
Ophthalmology Sector and the Thyroid Department in the
Endocrinology Sector at Federal University of Sao Paulo
(UNIFESP). The patients included were divided into 2 groups
following these inclusion criteria: a control group of 25
patients without thyroid diseases, confirmed after clinical
and laboratory examinations (thyroid hormones), or any other
ocular diseases. The study group consisted of 31 patients
with thyroid diseases, the diagnosis of which was confirmed
by the Endocrinology Sector. The thyroidopathies included
were autoimmune diseases but excluded nonautoimmune
diseases. A protocol endorsed by the UNIFESP was followed,
using clinical and ophthalmological history, biomicroscopy,
and impression cytology.Fifty-two percent of patients
without thyroid diseases and $88\%$ of patients with thyroid
diseases presented with conjunctivochalasis. The risk ratio
was 1.705 (Pr > chi(2) = 0.0038), indicating that there is
an association between them. For the impression cytology in
inferior bulbar conjunctiva, there was an association
between the result of the impression cytology and
conjunctivochalasis (Pearson chi(2) = 10.1190 Pr =
0.006).The prevalence of conjunctivochalasis in patients
with autoimmune thyroid diseases was $88\%.$ Patients with
autoimmune thyroidopathy presented higher percentages of
conjunctivochalasis than the control group, confirming the
association between them. The cytologic study showed the
highest prevalence of abnormal surface features in eyes with
conjunctivochalasis.},
