  • I have ocular myasthenia gravis, blepharospasms and dystonic tremors. The spasms and myasthenia seem to fight against each other. I do get Botox every 3 months that really controls the spasms. I have glasses that have a special made crutch in them that holds my eyelids open. (World optics) has been modifying glasses for over 50 years adding a crutch to them. It works. Are they painful? Yes. Does it take a while to get use to them? Yes. Do they work? Yes! I need both Botox to control the spasms and take the pressure off my head above my eyes and I also take mestinin and wear these special glasses. I have had ocular myasthenia gravis, for about 15 years.
