Abstract
This report describes an inadvertent perforation of the globe while injecting botulinum toxin A into the medial rectus muscle without electromyography guidance. Botulinum toxin A does not appear to have toxic effects on the human retina. Close observation and necessary measures to treat any retinal breaks and control increased intraocular pressure should be undertaken. Copyright 2011, SLACK Incorporated.Entities:
