Effect of Opium 1M Single Dose on Ptosis and Diplopia Due to Road Traffic Accident: A Case Report

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This case report explores the therapeutic effect of a single dose of Opium 1M (potentised opium) on chronic ptosis and diplopia in a 35-year-old male patient following a road traffic accident (RTA).Despite multiple prior treatments, the patient exhibited persistent right-sided ptosis and diplopia.Opium 1M was selected based on the chronic nature of the symptoms and associated nerve involvement.Significant improvement in ptosis and diplopia was observed within 30 days post-treatment, with the eyelid nearly returning to normal position.This case suggests Opium 1M may be effective in managing chronic ptosis post-trauma, although further research is needed to address persistent diplopia.
