I'm sorry, I missed that you mentioned her name.  She is too young most likely for cataracts.  She needs to be seen to rule out narrow angle glaucoma, especially if she is farsighted.

She needs to have a good eye exam by an ophthalmologist.  It could be simple such as dry eyes.  It could be something that needs surgical evaluation such as cataracts.  It could also be something more urgent such as narrow angle glaucoma.  You need to find a way to get her to an ophthalmologist.  Is she nearsighted or farsighted?  How old is she?
