Dear Concerned., Thanks for writing to us.  In all probability the vomiting and vertigo are as a result of raised intracranial tension(ICT) due to SOL(Space occupying lesion) as revealed by MRI as you have mentioned above. In general the raised ICT leads to loss of vision due to pressure effect on Optic Nerve. Considering the age factor and the location of lesion near to Vital Centers controlling Respiration and Circulation the Neurosurgeons may not suggest Euro Surgical intervention to remove the SOL. Definitely a Palliative Surgical Procedure such as Right Ventricle Peritoneal Shunting(Presuming the patient to be right-handed) to preserve her Vision for lifetime can be requested by you. Kindly go ahead and consult a Neurosurgeon at the earliest. Best Regards., Chat Doctor.
