Description |
Ocular myasthenia gravis is a chronic disease generally requiring years of treatment. Treatment consists of either Mestinon or immunosuppressive agents. Many patients with ocular myasthenia gravis are elderly and long term prednisone treatment is fraught with complications. Other immunosuppressive drugs are expensive, take a long time to work or have other complications. |
