Febrile seizures are caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. This can send signals to the muscles and to the eyes. The eyes of a child having a febrile seizure may roll back into their head or persistently drift to one side.
In a typical febrile seizure, the symptoms will end on their own within a few minutes and the child will recover quickly. If this does not happen, an ambulance may be needed.1‘Febrile Seizures: What Are They, Symptoms, Treatment & Prevention.’ Cleveland Clinic, my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/7001-febrile-seizures
