Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of severe ocular myasthenia gravis?Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms you are currently describing, it appears to be due to ptosis of the upper eyelid, meaning the eye cannot fully open. This is a common initial symptom. If it persists, there will be ongoing fatigue, meaning the patient may start to feel gradual fatigue as their eye begins to move. Eventually, the upper eyelid may retract again. Based on your symptoms, you are likely experiencing the initial stage of this condition.
