VIth CN Palsy Management

[@doctordootch]

I had arterievenous malformation (AVM) embolization on February 15, 2017 as a result of a carotud cavernous sinus fistula and my right eye is still off due to VI nerve palsy I am currently wearing glasses with a BO 8 prism lens so as to pull my vision forward. I can see 1 vs. 2 things now. I was told as it has only been 5 months, I have to wait a bit longer for the eye to go back in place. Word of advice. If you need prism lenses DO NOT get a thin frame. Get a chunky frame like I did. Fashionable and practical at the same time

@@whisperingwind7730 I'm going through this for the 2nd time. My first one lasted almost 7 months. There really isn't much you can do. I was told it would heal on it's own and would last between 3-6 months. Right now I'm on my 2nd month and it's as bad as the first time. Hope this helps.

hi just wanted to know if its possible to have a bilateral 6th nerve palsy, due to cerebral dysfunction with diplopia in the lateral gaze but no esotrope
