Possible seizur: The stiffness and abnormal eye movements associated with this fall is suggestive of a possible seizure, particularly is she was unresponsive during and sleepy after.

Passed out: Without additional information,it is difficult to give you a direct answer. She should best be evaluated by a neurologist and possibly have an EEG
