Ocular Myasthenia Gravis
Ocular Myasthenia Gravis (OMG) is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the connections between nerves and muscles that control eye movement. This leads to symptoms like drooping eyelids and double vision. In the context of uveitis, which is inflammation of the eye's middle layer, OMG can contribute to visual disturbances. Both conditions fall under ocular immunology, which studies how the immune system affects eye health. Managing OMG often requires careful coordination with specialists to address both muscle weakness and any eye inflammation, ensuring comprehensive eye care and improving quality of life.
