{Abstract}: We report 2 cases of pediatric ocular myasthenia gravis. The first case was a 7-year-old girl who presented with bilateral ophthalmoplegia and ptosis that correlated with the onset of upper respiratory symptoms. Neuroimaging and acetylcholine receptor antibody testing were unremarkable. The ice pack test was positive. Symptoms greatly improved with pyridostigmine, with full resolution of ophthalmoplegia achieved by 8-month follow-up. The second case was a 4-year-old girl who presented emergently with ptosis and bilateral ophthalmoplegia. Acetylcholine receptor antibodies testing was positive. The patient was started on pyridostigmine and intravenous immunoglobulin and is scheduled to follow-up with pediatric ophthalmology in the outpatient setting.
