Eye problems and possible interventions

[KatieClaire]

Hi all

Mum has progressing difficulty opening her eyes- sometimes I have to help her by prising open her eyelids. I’ve made an appointment to see an ophthalmologist to see if there might be a simple procedure that can help. It comes down to quality of life again really. Does anyone have any experience of eye surgery for this part of MSA? The optician doesn’t feel Botox would help although that has been suggested in the past. I don’t know if I’m being unrealistic …

Hello KatieThere’s a useful fact sheet including some links to other sites on the MSA Trust website at msatrust.org.uk/wp-content/... This may be of some help.

Take care, Ian
