tilting head/4th nerve palsy links

[Guest guest]

Leigh and Sandi,

I was also going to suggest looking into 4th nerve palsy/ superior oblique

palsy, same thing. My daughter also has this though I didn't see much

tilting, but she does have a very slight case of it. You might want to go

see a ophthalmologist and question 4th nerve palsy. Lorna had been seeing a

opthal. since 6 months for poor eye contact, superior oblique palsy wasn't

picked up until age four when we found a new ped. opthal. Here are some

links I have found helpful.

http://cim.ucdavis.edu/Eyes/Version1/eyesim.htm click on CN 4 it will show

you how the eye changes and moves.

http://www.aapos.org/pappostp5/paper96_8.html this one talks about facial

asymmetry with superior oblique palsy/4th nerve palsy, Lorna also has facial

asymmetry.
