Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This pilot study estimates the treatment effects of two different types of botulinum toxin type A in the treatment of Blepharospasm. Blepharospasm is characterised by excessive contraction of the muscles around the eye and can lead to repetitive blinking or sustained closure of the eyelids.
