Abstract

We describe a patient suffering from MoA and MA who had, as trigger attacks for MA, contraceptive pills and contact lenses. The use of the latter is an absolute trigger factor. Sleep deprivation and stress, in contrast, could be precipitating factors for MoA attacks. Possible pathogenic mechanisms will also be discussed.
