General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello my friend
I am Dr.Arianisa
Thanks for your question on HCM

You should contact to get a detailed checkup of your eyes an ophthalmologist doctor.
Any treatment is aimed at correcting a notable face turn or strabismus. Special seating may be needed in school to accommodate a child's head turn(im sorry but i dont know how old are you). Special rear-view mirrors help during driving.
But standard management of DS may involve surgery. The goal of surgery is the elimination or improvement of an unacceptable head turn, the elimination or reduction of significant misalignment of the eyes, the reduction of severe retraction, and the improvement of upshoots and downshoots.
Surgery does not eliminate the fundamental abnormality of innervation and no surgical technique has been completely successful in eliminating the abnormal eye movements.
Stay on contact with your ophthalmologist doctor

Hope you can resolve your problem and get better soon
Best regards
