There are so many things that the eyes can show you.  But one of the big things that the eyes can show you is a thyroid disorder.  Chances are if you have an overactive thyroid, you are already noticing that you are losing more weight without a change in diet and exercise, you may be tired a lot, and other things.  But frankly, the signs surrounding the eyes just confirm the diagnosis, and frankly in some ways, the signs that surround the eyes denote a more severe problem. 

One of the big signs is when your eyebrows start falling out at the ends or otherwise.   Hair loss is a big part of hyperthyroidism.  But the second big sign is actually bulging eyes.  Not everyone who has bulging eyes has a thyroid disorder keep in mind.  For example, the lady that was really big in commercials for a while who could actually pop her eyes out of her head to a larger degree probably didn’t have it.  But apparently, first lady Barbara Bush had a severe form known as Graves’ Disease. 

I wouldn’t have guessed that one by weight alone, but obviously it has a wide spread.  This being said, if you also notice blurry vision, restlessness, fatigue, increased appetite, weight loss, tremors, and palpitations in addition to your bulging eyes or loss in eyebrow hair, you may want to go see a doctor and get tests done to confirm or find another problem.
