Abstract

Eight patients with endocrine orbital myopathy received botulinum toxin injection of extraocular muscles for strabismus or injections of the levator for lid retraction. Strabismus of 25 prism diopters or less, especially during early stages of eye muscle involvement, responded well to injection with realignment and, probably, with avoidance of fixed muscle shortening. Long-standing strabismus, large angles, and lid retraction responded less well.
