Apraxia of lid opening
In ophthalmology, apraxia of lid opening (ALO) is an inability to initiate voluntary opening of the eyelid following a period of eyelid closure, with normal function at other times. Manual lifting of the eyelid often resolves the problem and the lid is able to stay open. ALO was first clearly described as a distinct entity in 1965 as “a nonparalytic motor abnormality characterized by the patient’s difficulty in initiating the act of lid elevation present only momentarily at the start of lid opening.”
