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.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1983
To the Editor.— I would like to offer some comments on the article entitled "Blinking and Blepharospasm" (1982; 248:3160) by Jankovic and co-workers. In the opening sentence of the section on pathogenesis, the authors quote a reference from Hall from 1945 regarding the clinical significance of spontaneous blinking.

Neurology, 2002
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.

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

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

Diffusion tensor imaging in blepharospasm and blepharospasm-oromandibular dystonia
Journal of Neurology, 2014Patterns of white matter (WM) abnormalities and correlation with clinical features in patients with blepharospasm (BSP) and patients with blepharospasm-oromandibular dystonia (BOM) remain unknown. Using voxel-based analysis, diffusion behaviors of WM including fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD) and eigenvalues were compared between 20 ...

Blepharospasm: Organic or functional?
Psychosomatics, 1978Abstract The literature concerning blepharospasm, a rare condition characterized by involuntary and sustained closure of the eyelids, is reviewed, and four patients evaluated and treated by us, described. Our experiences reviewing the literature, and treating patients affected by this condition, lead us to believe that several significant aspects of ...

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1981
Essential blepharospasm is an idiopathic, progressively debilitating disease leading to blindness. Years of forceful spasms result in brow ptosis, dermatochalasis, and, frequently, levator aponeurosis and lateral canthal tendon defects. Following standard neurectomy procedures, the facies droop, brow ptosis and dermatochalasis worsen, and ptosis and ...
