Blepharospasm (from Greek: blepharon, eyelid, and spasm, an uncontrolled muscle contraction), is an abnormal contraction or twitch of the eyelid. It is of two types: essential and reflex Blepharospasm. The benign essential Blepharospasm is a focal dystonia—a neurological movement disorder involving involuntary and sustained contractions of the muscles around the eyes. The term essential indicates that the cause is unknown, but fatigue, stress, or irritant are possible contributing factors. Symptoms: Excessive blinking and spasming of the eyes, usually characterized by uncontrollable eyelid closure of durations longer than the typical blink reflex, sometimes lasting minutes or even hours. Uncontrollable contractions or twitches of the eye muscles and surrounding facial area. Some sufferers have twitching symptoms that radiate into the nose, face and sometimes, the neck area. Dryness of the eyes.Sensitivity to the sun and bright light. Treatment: Homeopathy has very promising results in cases of Blepharospasm. We have 64 medicines under the rubric, Spasm of Lids in Synthesis Repertory. But we treat the patients according to individual characteristics. Case Study: Blepharospasm (from Greek: blepharon, eyelid, and spasm, an uncontrolled muscle contraction), also called benign essential Blepharospasm (BEB) is a type of focal dystonia in which there is an involuntary contraction of the muscles of the eyelids causing the closure of the lids. It does not affect a person’s vision or mental faculties, but it can cause lots of social impacts and a person even may think of suicide. The only time vision would be affected is if the contractions become so extreme that they force the eyelids closed. Most of the physician first consider it as a symptom of dry eyes as nowadays late night and frequent use of the mobile phone is causing dry eyes. They are mistakenly given lubricating eye drops. Even I have come across cases mistakenly diagnosed as Myasthenia Gravis Cause: The cause is unknown, though patients should be evaluated for diseases that may also have Blepharospasm as a symptom. Although the cause of Blepharospasm is unknown, it is possibly due to abnormal function of the brain’s basal ganglia. To my experience, the cause of this disease is prolonged mental worries, and I have invariably found such a history in my patients. That’s why I wish to call this disorder Neuropsychiatric rather than a neurological disorder. Treatment: The treatment of BEB choice is a periodic injection of botulinum toxin or BOTOX into the orbicularis oculi muscle. The effect usually does not lasts more than 3 months and also is not cost-effective. Homoeopathy offers a wonderful treatment of such neuropsychiatric cum neurological disorder based on individual symptoms. Case Study: This particular case has visited on 28 May 2019 at my clinic of Lucknow from Pathankot. She has been watching our cured cases at youtube and as she was not getting any solution hence visited at the clinic with her family. This lady was suffering from this disorder for more than two years and has been to various hospitals in Himanchal, Punjab, and the case was well diagnosed. She had not taken a shot of Botox injection as advised. Her condition was so bad that she was taking hear meal like a blind person 9watch video) I have tried to explain our exclusive treatment mode to them, Medicine transmission through the hair, but it was hard to believe for them, especially to her husband. We started the treatment; in the initial two months, there was no recover; hence we studied the case and changed the medicine transmission. This medicine worked well, and she got cured. I don’t claim that every patient with Blepharospasm will get the same results, but still, if the medicine is right, the cure is bound to happen with classical homoeopathy and medicine transmission through hair. This case got treated by the method of medicine transmission through hair. It is a new homoeopathic treatment model, where one of the patient’s hair gets placed and kept in a medicated vial. The patient will start getting the medication’s effect in their body irrespective of the distance. Dynamic energy medicine is reaching to the body of the patient without taking orally.
