Could you please inform me as to what causes Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome. My inflammation can become severe at times in the eyelids and I have been keeping it in check with my local corneal specialist. He placed me on Blephamide ointment every night. I've been on this for 3-4 months. It's has been basically keeping it masked. I still have discomfort. He said to call if I have any swelling. Well, I have slight swelling every day.
If I should go to Wills Eye Institute in Philadelphia, what department would this fall under? Is it Neuro-Opth?
Thanks so much!!!
