My fit and well mid 60's dad has developed what sounds like an isolated 6th nerve palsy with lateral diplopia and no other symptoms at all. He has no PMHx of note, not on any meds, just wears reading glasses.
Optician could find nothing wrong and after a visit to GP, his BP, glucose, TFTs ESR all normal apparently I am at the other end of the country
Who does he need to see (wants to go private) - neuro or ophth? or would you both do an MRI anyway so it doesn't matter too much?
