Ptosis

Dr., my dad is 63 years old and he is diabetic.He also has high BP and he is on medication for both of them. Lately, he has been complaining of headaches.Then, few days ago his left eyelid was drooping and his left eye was deviated medially. Can you please help me by giving your opinion on what he might have or any important information that I should know.Thank you.

Your father's condition is an EMERGENCY and could represent a stroke, evolving stroke or a cerebral aneurysm. I would go to the Emergency Room immediately and he needs to see a neurologist and an Eye MD ophthalmologist. Please take IMMEDIATE action.
