Long-term Efficacy of Botulinum Neurotoxin-A Treatment for Essential Blepharospasm.

CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we showed that repetitive, long-term BoNT-A injections are considered a stable and effective treatment for essential blepharospasm in terms of consistent injection dose and maintenance of treatment efficacy. However, the duration of long-term efficacy could be decreased in patients injected repetitively. PMID: 29376224 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
