Blepharoclonus provoked by voluntary eye closure

S Behrman et al. Mov Disord. 1988.

Abstract

A patient of 23 years of age is presented who, on recovery following a severe head injury, developed abnormal involuntary movements of the eyelids. This consisted of intermittent blepharoclonus which recurred repetitively on voluntary, but not forced, eye closure. The possible genesis of this disorder will be discussed.
