A video-oculography study of fixation instability in myasthenia gravis
MG patients showed greater BCEA values and refixations and lower target IA percentages of dwell time during gaze hold than control participants, suggesting extraocular neuromuscular junction instability and fatigue. Interestingly, there were no significant inter-eye differences in MG participants. This study is limited by the small number of patients but adds to the current literature exploring video-oculography in MG patients as a novel diagnostic tool. Further studies are recommended for translation into clinical practice.
