Abstract

Botulinum toxin acts by interfering with neural transmission at the neuromuscular junction, causing muscle paralysis. It has been used for a variety of medical conditions like strabismus , hemifacial spasm, and various spastic movement disorders, headaches, hypersalivation, hyperhidrosis etc. It has been used in the field of cosmetology for the treatment of wrinkles and folds. Botulinum toxin represents a simple, safe and cheap alternative to complex surgeries in a number of ophthalmological conditions Keywords: Botulinum toxin, Strabismus, Blepharospasm,Epiphora
