A Review of Cogans Lid Twitch Sign

Saleena Resheed, Aswathy Dharmaraj

Abstract


CLTS typically affects young adults, presenting with eyelid twitching, blepharospasm, hemifacial spasms, and ocular deviation. The exact cause is unknown, but theories include brainstem or cranial nerve dysfunction. Diagnosis involves clinical examination, electrophysiology, and imaging studies. Treatment options include botulinum toxin injections, medications, and surgery.
