 It sounds as if your friend has a condition known as Harlequin syndrome. It can be caused by several different things but often no specific cause is found. Other than cosmetic appearance, it is typically harmless.
Treatment varies depending on the cause. The neurologist will be able to help her determine the best treatment for her.
Best wishes.
