Symptom 1: ptosis: also known as drooping eyelids. According to our analysis of 3100 cases of myasthenia gravis, 73% of them had ptosis as the first symptom. It can be seen at any age, especially in children. In the early stage, it was mostly on one side, and in the late stage, it was mostly on both sides. In many patients, when the eyelid on one side was staring up, the eyelid on the other side was drooping down, that is to say, the left and right eyelids appeared alternately.

Very young children can not describe diplopia, often compensatory tilt head, torticollis, in order to make diplopia disappear and see clearly, serious cases can also show strabismus.
