Treatment depends on the cause of the problem. There is no treatment for Horner syndrome itself.

The outcome depends on whether treatment of the cause is successful.

There are no direct complications of Horner syndrome itself. However, there may be complications from the disease that caused Horner syndrome or from its treatment.

Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of Horner syndrome.
