There is no treatment for OPMD currently. Clinical trials are underway to bring Trehalose to the market as a treatment.

Nowadays there are no medical treatments that can cure OPMD, however there are options to make your life easier like, go to speech doctor and learn tricks in order to chew and swallow, plastic surgery on the eyelids (blepharoplasty), in cases of to completely close their eyelids after surgery. In cases where difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) is severe cricopharyngeal myotomy is a surgical treatment, in worse cases a feeding tube is also an option. Beside that there are some other treatments that are still under trial or investigation.

As of now, I am not aware of any treatment for OOMD. There are however a few trials that appear from time to time. Because this is a RARE disease there isn’t the public awareness and research money to find treatment. There are things that can be learned to help manage at the place progression
