  Other muscle groups that may also be affected by dystonic movements include muscles of the pharynx [7] and larynx. [3,8] The voice may become harsh, hoarse and strained, a condition termed spasmodic dysphonia. [8] Cervical muscle involvement, typical [blepharospasm.ca]

  Pitch breaks, hoarseness, limited intensity range, and poor intensity control are present in all three types [ 289 ]. It has been proposed that SD is a continuum disorder in which both types of spasms occur with differing frequencies [ 58 ]. [neupsykey.com]

• Lacrimation

  The production of proteins, particularly lacritin, normally secreted by the lacrimal glands is markedly reduced in some patients with blepharitis, which reduces the lipid layer. [blepharospasm.org]

• Prolapse

  Dystonia and choreoathetosis are rare associations of cervical cord lesions, such as ependymoma, glioma, myxoma, demyelination, trauma, and cervical disc prolapse [ 338 ]. [neupsykey.com]

• Tinnitus

  Pulsatile tinnitus may also be present if the tensor tympani is involved. Hemifacial spasm may be present during sleep which differentiates it from benign essential blepharospasm (BEB). [eyewiki.aao.org]

  Tinnitus was present in four patients, three of whom had complete resolution at 1-month follow-up. Other complications are summarized in Table 1. [surgicalneurologyint.com]

  Symptoms are frequently aggravated by stress, fatigue, anxiety, and voluntary facial movements. 1, 7 Relaxation, alcohol intake, touching the affected areas, and exercise reportedly improve symptoms in some patients. 1 Low‐pitched tinnitus in the ipsilateral [academic.oup.com]

  This is analogous to the motor blocks or the freezing phenomenon experienced by some, and the terms "apraxia of eyelid opening". [blepharospasm.org]

  Stage II includes continued intellectual decline, myoclonus, focal seizures with secondary generalization, choreoathetosis, apraxia, and visual changes with optic atrophy, dysarthria, and tremors. [neuroweb.us]

  Basal ganglia disease can produce various combinations of spontaneous blepharospasm, reflex blepharospasm and "apraxia" of eyelid opening, in addition to involuntary movements of the lower face. [blepharospasm.ca]

• Hyperactivity

  Tetanus is caused by tetanus toxin, a product of Clostridium tetani, and it is characterized by hyperactivity of motor neurons, which causes forceful closure of the eyelids. [blepharospasm.org]

  Patients display febrile seizures persisting sometimes beyond the age of 6 years and/or a variety of afebrile seizure types. [molsoft.com]

• Oculomasticatory Myorhythmia

  This oculomasticatory myorhythmia is usually associated with contractions of neck as well as the pharyngeal and proximal and distal musculature. The phenomenology of blepharospasm is usually the same regardless of its cause. [blepharospasm.org]

• Babinski Sign

  Furthermore, in contrast to blepharospasm, patients with hemifacial spasm often exhibit paradoxical raising of the eyebrow as the eye closes (the "other" Babinski sign) ( Stamey and Jankovic, 2007 ). [blepharospasm.org]
