Weird Eye Blinking/Squinting

[Guest guest]

My youngest daughter has had episodes all of her life that resemble the

strokelike episodes and headaches that are seen with MELAS, although she

does not have the deletion for MELAS. She actually has a complex IV

deficiency.

In any case, she is very very photosensitive, and does a lot of weird

squinting with her eyes because of this photosensitivity (light

sensitivity). She can have more trouble at certain times than others

and it can be anything from the sunlight to the TV that can cause the

reaction.
