Myofascial pain syndrome of the occipitofrontalis muscle and its ophthalmological implications

Myofascial pain syndrome associated with occipitofrontalis muscle most of the time undergo underdiagnosed after eye surgery, and the exact cause remain to be ascertained. The present study is a case report which indicates that it may be one of the reasons for eye pain and/or headache that is misinterpreted as glaucoma or increased intraocular pressure. A systematic study is warranted to avoid the use of medicine in similar cases.
