Prosthetic Contact Lenses

Have you tried prosthetic contact lenses? Did they improve your Myasthenia gravis eye symptoms and vision?

  1. Prosthetic contact lenses aren’t typically used to improve vision or alleviate eye symptoms in Myasthenia Gravis (MG), as MG primarily affects muscle strength and control rather than lens-related issues. However, some people with MG use specialized glasses with prism lenses or treatments like eye patches to help manage double vision.

    1. You are correct. This, however, is a question that was mentioned by a patient on our site. Some individuals may have tried these lenses before receiving an MG diagnosis.
