ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder that can result in fluctuating muscle strength and various ocular manifestations. Common ocular signs and symptoms in MG patients include ptosis, limited eye movement, and diplopia.

Purpose

This study aimed to investigate the association between the clinical characteristics of MG, specifically the age of onset, and stereoacuity in MG patients.

Design

This was a cross-sectional study that enrolled 150 MG patients.

Methods

Stereoacuity was assessed using the Butterfly Stereo Acuity Test. Main analysis was conducted using multinomial logistic regression to explore the relative risk associated with different levels of stereoacuity.

Results
