An overview of blepharospasm introduces an Australian survey into the condition. The survey findings are similar to the trends established in the literature. Blepharospasm occurs later in life, effects more women than men and is a relatively unknown condition. Diagnosis is difficult and the emotional implications of the condition are extreme due to its
