Abstract

Various muscles can be involved in idiopathic eosinophilic myositis (IEM), with the ocular muscles being notably affected. Ocular eosinophilic myositis is a rare condition that typically affects the rectus muscles. A tissue biopsy stands as the gold standard for diagnosis. Different subtypes exist based on the extent of eosinophilic infiltration. Limited data is available about treatment, although glucocorticoids have shown successful outcomes. We present the case of a 60-year-old man who, a few years after being diagnosed with ocular myasthenia gravis, was diagnosed through a tissue biopsy with ocular eosinophilic myositis. Treatment with oral glucocorticoids significantly improved his symptoms.
