Do not confuse Blepharospasm with ptosis, or drooping of the eyelids.
The term Blepharospasm applies to any abnormal blinking or involuntary twitching of the eyelids.
Eye Twitching, also called Blepharospasm or myokymia, is an abrupt, uncontrolled motion of the eyelid.
Botox is actually used to treat eye muscle problems(strabismus) and uncontrolled eyelid twitching(Blepharospasm),
and it was developed and FDA-approved for these uses with eye safety in mind.
Blepharospasm is more common after the age of 55,
although it can occur at any age, and a little less than twice as common in women as in men.
