Question: Can a thyroid problem cause vision problems!?

Answers:
If he is hyperthyroid (overactive thyroid), then yes, eye problems are a classic symptom!. It doesn't always happen, but it can cause people's eyes to bulge out and feel uncomfortable!. It's partly because of the extra thyroid hormone that the thyroid is producing, and partly due to odd antibodies that stimulate the thyroid and fool it into working too hard - the antibodies can also stimulate tissue behind the eyeball!.
