BACKGROUND: Blepharospasm is one of the components of drug-induced Meige's syndrome which is reported to be caused by typical antipsychotics. Reports of blepharospasm or Meige's syndrome caused by atypical antipsychotics are rare.
CASE: A 30-year-old female patient presented to psychiatry out patient department (OPD) with chief complaints of inability to keep her eyes open for long and excessive blinking for 2 months, irritation of eyes, watery discharge from eyes and photophobia for last 1 month. The patient had been taking olanzapine 10 mg, sertraline 100 mg and divalproex sodium 500 mg per orally on once a day basis for the management of major depressive disorder with psychotic features for last 6 months. Routine blood analysis, thyroid function, EEG, MRI, lipid profile did not reveal any abnormality. Ocular examination was also within normal limits. Olanzapine was suspected as a culprit for the above symptoms of patient, so it was replaced with quetiapine 25 mg/day. Patient showed partial recovery of symptoms within 1 week and complete recovery within 2 months of stopping olanzapine. Causality of olanzapine-induced blepharospasm as per WHO-UMC scale was probable.
CONCLUSIONS: Olanzapine (atypical antipsychotics) should also be kept in the list of suspected drugs causing blepharospasm in psychotic patients on treatment although further similar evidences from observational studies and/or reports are needed to establish the causal relationship.
