Unilateral Proptosis Caused by Ocular Myasthenia Gravis | Proptosis is a little-recognized finding in ocular myasthenia gravis, except when attributed to coexistent thyroid ophthalmopathy. Administration of edrophonium can temporarily reverse myasthenic deficits for diagnostic purposes. | Myasthenia Gravis; Proptosis; Edrophonium | Neuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu |

Eye Movement Fatigibility in Myasthenia Gravis Observed by Video-oculography | Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease characterized by diplopia, ptosis, myasthenia, and ophthalmoplegia. It features fatigibility that fluctuating symptoms and worsen due to muscle movement. Ancillary tests such as antibody assays, edrophonium test can be used. However, 46% of patients are not... | Myasthenia; Neuro-Ophth & Systyemic Disease (eg. MS, MG, Thyroid) | Neuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu |

Validity of Forced Eyelid Closure Test (FECT) in Africans - A Pilot Study | The validity of forced eyelid closure test (FECT) as a clinical screening test to aid in the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis has never been documented in Africans.
