Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Thyroid disease can cause problems with the eyes. The most common complaints are double vision, eye pain, retraction of the eyelid, protrusion of the eye.
Some persons can also experience the feeling of an object in the eye, redness of the eye, pain in response to light.
Based on this , it is definitely possible that your eye symptoms could definitely be related to your thyroid.
In terms of the eltroxin, the dose is ok to be used longterm. The dose of this medication can actually go up to 2.
You are not likely to experience any complications related to this dose.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
