Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2001
Treatment decisions for ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG) should be based on symptomatology. Local, nonpharmacologic treatment of ptosis or diplopia is successful in relatively few patients, and the majority of patients require drug therapy for satisfactory resolution of their symptoms.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2005
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder characterized clinically by proximal weakness and bulbar symptoms and pathologically by damage to the post-synaptic membrane at the neuromuscular junction. Ocular myasthenia gravis (ocular MG) is a form of myasthenia gravis whereby the patients' weakness is limited to the muscles of the eyes and eyelids (

To review ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG), a localized form of myasthenia gravis clinically involving only the extraocular, levator palpebrae superioris, and orbicularis oculi muscles.Ocular manifestations can masquerade as a variety of ocular motility disorders, including central nervous system disorders and peripheral cranial nerve palsies.

Pediatric Ocular Myasthenia Gravis
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2019We present a review of current strategies in the treatment of pediatric ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG). A critical appraisal was performed of the current literature available on OMG and the treatment options available for all age populations. From this data, we present the evidence surrounding therapeutic options for pediatric OMG and discuss treatment

Russian Annals of Ophthalmology
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease characterized by muscle weakness and pathological fatigue due to autoaggressive phenomena with the formation of antibodies directed against various structures of the neuromuscular synapse. In most patients, the disease begins with the involvement of extraocular muscles, presenting with symptoms such as ...

Ocular Aspects of Myasthenia Gravis
Seminars in Neurology, 2000Ocular myasthenia gravis is a not uncommon autoimmune disorder causing diplopia, ptosis, and weakness of lid closure. The predilection of myasthenia for the ocular muscles may be related to differences between limb and extraocular muscles in either physiological function or antigenicity. Clinically, ocular myasthenia can mimic any form of pupil-sparing

Penicillamine-Induced Ocular Myasthenia Gravis
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1985Two patients with rheumatoid arthritis (two women, 58 and 62 years old) developed reversible penicillamine-induced ocular myasthenia gravis. Both had the HLA-DR1 antigen, unlike most patients with idiopathic myasthenia gravis who show HLA-DR3, suggesting that penicillamine-induced myasthenia gravis and its idiopathic counterpart occur in patients with ...

Update on Ocular Myasthenia Gravis
Neurologic Clinics, 2017Ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG) is a localized form of myasthenia gravis in which autoantibodies directed against acetylcholine receptors block or destroy these receptors at the postsynaptic neuromuscular junction. The hallmark of OMG is a history of painless weakness or fatigability of the extraocular muscles and ptosis with normal pupillary function ...
