Excellent pickup on the burn injury!!
She had a burn injury in infancy involving the left eye. However, she is now complaining of visual difficulties in the right eye.
Leprosy is a good thought as well!!!

Here is a clue, our brilliant pediatric ophthalmologist, Linda Laurence, picked it up right away...
If that doesn't help, I will have another photo posted shortly that will probably give it away...

waardenburg syndrome.
fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis.
congential horners.
Freeze, it is one of the three you have mentioned...
did't see this pic before I answered.
So, who thinks Van Gogh had Waardenburg's? He paints many of his self protraits with heterochromia, and he did have mental illness (associated with the syndrome) and there are only two photos of him, the only one I have seen is from the back...
Did he have hearing loss?
