The treatment of Horner's syndrome is always individual and tailored to the disease of the affected person that caused Horner's syndrome

It therefore goes hand in hand with the treatment of the causative disease.

There is therefore no specific treatment. It consists only in eliminating the cause of the disease that caused Horner's syndrome. This will alleviate the triad of symptoms.

In general, the likelihood of a positive outcome increases if the disease is treated early.

However, if there is no improvement in the symptoms of Horner's syndrome after treatment of the causative disease, it is essential to find out the other causes of the symptomatology.

Prevention of this disease is essentially non-existent, since it arises as a consequence of another disease.

I graduated from the secondary medical school in Žilina. After graduation I started studying at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Applied Sciences in Košice in the field of nursing. During my studies I worked at the L. Pasteur University Hospital as a nurse in the neurosurgical ICU and then as a nurse in the ICU of the Clinic of Haematology and Oncohaematology. During my work as a nurse, I was constantly seeking knowledge and I completed my specialisation studies in adult intensive care at the SZU in Bratislava, as well as the rigorosum procedure and subsequently completed my doctoral studies in nursing. In addition to my work and studies, I also worked as a teacher of professional practice at the St. Elizabeth School of Nursing in Košice, where I was able to pass on my experience to female students in the medical field. I like to devote my free time to my family and spending time in the outdoors , as well as furthering my education.
