A Nationwide Survey by the Korean Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (KSOPRS) on the Management of Thyroid Eye Disease in South Korea

As biologics like teprotumumab become more accessible, region-specific guidelines integrating global evidence and local healthcare constraints will be critical for optimized patient care.
