Meige syndrome is a rare, neurological condition characterized by blepharospasm (abnormal movement of the eyelids); oromandibular dystonia (spasms in the jaw and tongue); and sometimes, cervical dystonia. Symptoms and severity can vary.[8326][8327] The exact cause of Meige syndrome is unknown, but researchers suspect that it is due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Treatment focuses on each person’s symptoms and may include drug therapy and/or botulinum A toxin (Botox) injections.[8326] Other treatment options, such as deep brain stimulation, are currently being considered.
