Eye crossing?
 
Don't know if this is the right place but here goes. I saw an old friend at dinner Thurs and she has one eye that is crossing. If she doesn't have a patch on it she will see double.

Brief history on her... She had a brain tumor removed about 3 years ago and has a plate right above her hairline at the front of her head. Everything went well with this surgery and she gets regular check ups for it.

So a little over a month ago she gets hit on the head by the trunk lid of her car and from that moment her eye started crossing. She has gone to her brain doc, an opthamologist, a neuro-opthamaologist and who knows who else. They have no answer as to why this is happening. She had an MRI to check out the plates and look for an answer as to why this is happening and it showed that everything is OK.

When she takes off her glasses, shuts then opens her eyes the one eye will slowly creep towards her nose and she sees double when that happens. SHe tried to patch the good eye to make this one work harder but it made her too dizzy. So now she is wearing a patch of some sort over the lens of her glasses over this lazy eye and waiting for an answer from somewhere.

So the big question??? Anybody have any idea what this could be? Thanks for any help...Sue

I'd have a neurosurgeon check her MRI carefully. Since she'd had a tumor removed, she has a nsg history. I'd go back to him and have him look at the films to be sure she doesn't have any ventricular dilation.


Good luck...
