| Description | In up to 85% of patients, the initial presenting symptom of myasthenia gravis (MG) is related to the eyes, which is termed ocular MG.1 A population-based incidence of ocular MG has yet to be reported. The purpose of this study was to establish this incidence, as well as identify determinants of transformation to generalized MG, using a population-based record-linkage system. |
