Infusion Therapy for Thyroid Eye Disease

Thyroid Eye Disease (TED), also known as Graves’ ophthalmopathy, is more than just a vision issue—it’s an autoimmune condition that can transform your appearance and your daily life. Symptoms like eye discomfort, swelling, double vision, and bulging eyes can be physically painful and emotionally taxing.

At Suite Life, we understand the impact this condition has on your well-being. We provide specialized Thyroid Eye Disease Treatment in the form of outpatient infusion therapy. Working in close coordination with your referring ophthalmologist or specialty provider, we deliver the care you need in a calm, patient-centered setting.

Understanding Thyroid Eye Disease Treatment

For many years, treatment options for active TED were limited. Today, infusion for thyroid eye disease represents a significant advancement in how we manage this condition. Unlike surgeries that correct damage after it has occurred, infusion therapy targets the underlying mechanism of the disease during its active phase.

Tepezza Infusion Therapy

The most prominent advancement in this field is the Tepezza infusion. Tepezza® (teprotumumab-trbw) is the first and only FDA-approved prescription medicine specifically indicated for the treatment of Thyroid Eye Disease.

Patients often ask about the impact of Tepezza medication. Clinical studies have shown that it can significantly reduce eye bulging (proptosis) and double vision (diplopia). It also helps alleviate the pain, redness, and swelling associated with the condition.

When considering Tepezza treatment, it is helpful to look at the evidence. Many patients see a noticeable difference in their appearance and comfort levels after completing the full course of therapy. While individual results vary, the Tepezza before and after clinical data demonstrates compelling improvements for patients with active disease who previously had few non-surgical options.

How the Treatment Works

Eye infusion treatment involves delivering medication directly into your bloodstream through an IV line. A full course of Tepezza typically consists of a series of infusions given once every three weeks for a total of eight treatments. Each session takes about an hour to administer, though you should plan for some additional observation time.

Note: All treatments at Suite Life are provided strictly by prescription and are administered according to your referring provider’s specific treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Tepezza medication work?

Tepezza is specifically designed to treat thyroid eye disease by targeting and inhibiting the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), a protein that plays a crucial role in the development of thyroid eye disease. By blocking this protein, Tepezza can reduce inflammation and other symptoms associated with thyroid eye disease.

How do I know if Tepezza infusion therapy is right for me?

If you have thyroid eye disease and traditional treatments haven't been effective, Tepezza infusion therapy might be a suitable option. It's important to have an in-depth discussion with your healthcare provider about your symptoms, treatment goals, and the potential benefits and risks of Tepezza infusion therapy to make an informed decision.

How often will I need to schedule infusion therapy sessions?

Tepezza is most often given every 3 weeks for a total of 8 sessions. However, your physician may recommend a different schedule based on your individual needs and your response to treatment. At Suite Life, we work closely with your physician to ensure that your treatment plan is tailored specifically to you.

How can I get started with infusion therapy at Suite Life?

After your provider submits your referral to us, our team will contact you to welcome you to our clinic, schedule your first visit, verify your insurance information, and answer any questions you may have. The process is simple and stress-free, so you can focus on receiving the care you need.
