Enophthalmos
Facial asymmetry (i.e. hemifacial retrusion, upward slanting of mouth on the side of the head tilt, mild enophthalmos of paretic eye) and superior oblique tendon abnormalities (such as absence, redundance, misdirection) are frequently associated. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Enophthalmos. Horner's syndrome is distinguished from physiological anisocoria by instillation of a drop of 4% cocaine: in physiological anisocoria, this results in dilation, whereas it doesn't where there is a Horner's syndrome. [patient.info]

Prognosis
The prognosis of a fourth nerve palsy depends on the underlying etiology. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Prognosis When a child presents with a postinfectious, isolated trochlear palsy that cannot be explained as congenital, traumatic, restrictive, myasthenic, or neoplastic, the prognosis is good and observation alone is sufficient. [guwsmedical.info]
[…] titers Electrodiagnositic testing: In severe paresis to determine extent of injury Variant: Bilateral simultaneous facial palsy 12 Frequency: 0.4% of Bells palsy Onset in 2nd nerve: 1 to 6 days after 1st nerve paresis Severity: Often severe bilaterally Prognosis [neuromuscular.wustl.edu]
Traumatic facial palsy in neonates is associated with good prognosis as seen in the index case. In contrast nontraumatic facial palsies carry a poor functional outcome [ 13, 14 ]. [ispub.com]
Fixed and dilated pupils in comatose patients indicate a poor prognosis, especially when present bilaterally. Causes of a unilateral non-reactive pupil Post-traumatic iridocyclitis - eg, direct facial trauma. [patient.info]
Etiology
SO hypoplasia of 75% compared with the contralateral normal side suggests trochlear nerve absence as the etiology of congenital SOP. Footnotes H.K. Yang and D.S. Lee contributed equally to this work. [ajnr.org]

Prevention
Other eye doctors recommend surgery early in a patient's life to prevent the compensatory torticollis and facial asymmetry that develop with age. [en.wikipedia.org]
Prevention Prevention of paralysis depends on prevention of the underlying causes. Risk of stroke can be reduced by controlling high blood pressure and cholesterol levels. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
It is unknown, however, whether early strabismus surgery can prevent or reverse facial asymmetry. [guwsmedical.info]
Therefore, extreme measures are taken in hospital settings to prevent the condition by reducing intracranial pressure, or decompressing (draining) a hematoma which is putting local pressure on a part of the brain. [howlingpixel.com]
