Is there a connection with seizures and eyes being dilated. My son was recently diagnosed with epilepsy, and after a seizure I have noticed his eyes are often dilated...
I have 2 daughters I'm noticing have eyes dilated randomly that I've always thought was 'weird', but, something we were just use to seeing in our family. Should I consider getting these 2 children tested? We've not seen any grand mals or anything like that. But, when my daughter was 2, she was rushed to the hospital with a really bad seizure she wasn't coming out of. She was completely stiff and frozen...completely unresponsive for more than 15 minutes. She was tested with normal MRI and told she had febrile seizures and would grow out of it. We thought she had grown out of it. But, consistently over the years, I have noticed this weird eye dilation thing going on. Now, my 6 year old is doing that as well...and lately, her left eye with turn to the right for just seconds...then go back to normal. I thought at first it may be a 'lazy eye'...But, now with noticing the dilation of her eyes, I'm thinking she may be having seizures?
