Abstrakt: | Benign essential blepharospasm is a focal dystonia characterized by involuntary contractions of the orbicularis oculi. Botulinum toxin type A injections are often first-line treatment, but patients may experience refractory symptoms or decreased response over time. DaxibotulinumtoxinA, a novel botulinum toxin type A product, has shown promise in cervical dystonia and facial rhytids but has not been previously reported for benign essential blepharospasm treatment. This case highlights a 57-year-old male with severe, poorly controlled benign essential blepharospasm despite high-dose injections of onabotulinumtoxinA and incobotulinumtoxinA. He subsequently received 100 units of daxibotulinumtoxinA in the same periorbital injection pattern with subjective faster onset, extended duration of effect, and improved symptom management compared to previous treatments. Notably, the patient experienced 50% to 75% efficacy retention at 3 months postinjection, significantly better than his response to other botulinum toxin type A products. This case suggests that daxibotulinumtoxinA may be an effective treatment for benign essential blepharospasm including patients experiencing poor symptom control with other botulinum toxin type A products.
