3 Conversion Rate Of Ocular Myasthenia Gravis To Generalized Myasthenia GravisOcular myasthenia gravis (OMG) is a common presentation to the neuro-ophthalmology clinic. Previous studies have reported that generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG) develops in 50% or more of patients presenting with OMG, usually within 2 years. We sought to calculate the conversion rate of OMG to GMG...Conversion Rate; Ocular Myasthenia Gravis; Generalized Myasthenia GravisNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
4 Low Conversion Rate Of Ocular To Generalized Myasthenia Gravis In An Asian PopulationOcular myasthenia gravis (OMG) is a common, localized form of myasthenia gravis limited to the extraocular, levator palpebrae superioris, and orbicularis oculi muscles. Generalization of OMG is believed to occur in 50-80% of patients, usually within 2 years.1 The prevalence of OMG generalization in ...Ocular Myasthenia Gravis; Asian Population; Myasthenia Gravis ConversionNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu

10 Natural History of Ocular Myasthenia Gravis in 101 casesThere is currently no prognostic test to individualize prediction of Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (GMG) risk in patients who first present with ocular disease. Most studies that report risk factors are flawed by the mix of patients on immunosuppression. We aimed to create a prognostic score to pred...Myasthenia Gravis, Ocular Myasthenia Gravis, PrognosisNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
11 Ocular Myasthenia Gravis with Multiple Episodes of Spontaneously Remitting SymptomsMyasthenia gravis is a chronic disease generally requiring lifelong treatment. Approximately 20% of patients with myasthenia gravis will have a spontaneous transitory or complete clinical remission during the course of their disease. Although a relapsing remitting course is common in patients on imm...Ocular Myasthenia Gravis, Cranial Nerves, DiplopiaNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
12 Peribulbar Triamcinolone for Ocular Myasthenia GravisConventional medical treatment of ocular myasthenia gravis employs an oral/systemic delivery. A recent case series reported successful treatment using peribular dexamethasone (Shi et al, BMC Ophthalmol, 2020). The treatment required up to 6 repeated, weekly injections.
