Hello there. I can understand your concern. I would not encourage you to involve in trying to diagnose the situation by yourself. Its not your subject. Also, if you had attached a picture of her eyes, woe could have been able to suggest you better. I would suggest you take her to a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain.
