This paper presents a new treatment modality, timolol 0.5% eye drops either topical to normal eyes or preferably by a compounded nasal spray for episodic use in patients with mild to moderate essential tremor. This would primarily be patients wishing to damp their tremors on certain occasions or who were not able to tolerate daily oral beta blockers. We believe this to be a first literature report.
