Essential blepharospasm is defined as the involuntary spasmodic bilateral closing of the eyelids. The symptoms are typically triggered by stress, fatigue, intense light, or individual factors. The disease is usually slowly progressive. Essential blepharospasm is predominant in females and often appears in people older than 50 years old.

Neuropathology of blepharospasm
Experimental Neurology, 2021The dystonias are a group of disorders characterized by excessive muscle contractions leading to abnormal repetitive movements or postures. In blepharospasm, the face is affected, leading to excessive eye blinking and spasms of muscles around the eyes.

AbstractI report on five patients with tardive blepharospasm seen in a movement disorders clinic, out of 25 tardive dystonia patients. They were young (aged 25–50 yrs); four were men and three had a schizophrenic disorder. The onset was gradual while on maintenance neuroleptics in four and on withdrawal in the fifth.

Benign essential blepharospasm is a common focal dystonia characterized by involuntary eyelid closure. Its etiology, supported by animal models, appears to be multifactorial, representing the influence of a genetic background and an environmental trigger.

Primary blepharospasm is an adult-onset dystonia typically present at rest and exacerbated by bright light, stress and voluntary movements of eyes and eyelids. Inconsistency or inducibility by activities involving muscles other than orbicularis oculi muscles are considered incongruous with typical primary blepharospasm, heralding the suspicion of ...

To investigate causes, associations, and results of treatment with blepharospasm, 1,653 patients were evaluated by extensive questionnaires to study blepharospasm and long-term results of treatment with the full myectomy operation, botulinum-A toxin, drug therapy, and help from the Benign Essential Blepharospasm Research Foundation (BEBRF). The percent

Lamotrigine‐Induced Blepharospasm
Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 1999Movement disorders such as tremor and ataxia occur commonly during therapy with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). Dystonias, however, are rare. Blepharospasm, although reported with neuroleptic agents, has never been reported with AEDs. Our patient developed blepharospasm during therapy with lamotrigine.
