Head tilt due to R eye Inferior Rectus Palsy

Hi ,

I am Bashir from Afghanistan. Since child hood I have the head tilt problem. It would be difficult to say exactly how it happened. The thing which is still in my memory is that in childhood my friends used to call me “head tilt boy”.

I visited eye doctors and Orthoptic. They say there is Right eye Inferior Rectus Palsy (IR) problem. It could be solved only by surgical operation.

I would like to find out any other way (eye exercise or medicines)
Sincerely,  
Bashir

Dear  Dr.  John C Hagan,
Many thanks for the advice.
Could you please tell me name of the disease which my eye is suffering.
Because I checked my eyes in Pakistan. Now I migrated to my home land in Kabul. I am going to visit eye hospital where I have to explain what the previous eye specialist told me and what was the result of the tests I have done. Other wise re tests will be conducted.


If you would like to I can send the Pakistani eye specialist comments.

Thank you and with best  regards;
Bahsir

No, surgery is the only way. Needs to be by Eye MD that specializes in squint/strabismus.
