eyes rolling

[pigeon17]

Hi my toddler is 15months old, weighing 12.5kg, height 84 cm, his eyes roll when he is tired , they dance up and down.He has had a ct scan which came back clear, and also the back of his eyes checked which was okay aswell, he also  has a problem with his balance were he would fall about 10 times in a minute and this is when his eyes are fine.he also rolls his eyes up and goes into a trance, if he was to go to sleep for 5 minutes his eyes are corrected, sometimes 5 minutes later his eyes are back to rolling again, i just want to get to the bottom of it could you help me???

Thanks
Very worried mother

My son is 16 months old and he has been rolling his eyes VERY frequently for a week and a half. I am a pediatric nurse and my first thought was small seizures. In fact, the odds are good that it is and my pediatrician agrees.  He had an EEG today so I don't know for sure but the PA int the neurology dept whom I've known for 20+ years agreed. It's tough but not the worst thing as I have seen many times. Best to be aware now before school starts.  Good luck and be brave!

My 7 month old son does the same thing. Over the last two weeks I have noticed his eyes rolling to the left and up, about 6 times a day (that I see). I decided to google babies+eye rolling, and came up with this forum. There doesn't seem to be any explainations, just lots of similar cases. After reading about other babies, I remember that he does 'zone out' for brief moments, but this may also be related to being tired. I will do more research and let you know if I find anything.
