Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Nerve palsies cause double vision and these two diseases are most common cause of them. we have to rule out which nerve is involved first and you may also have to undergo a brain scan to rule out any neural causes which may cause pressure on the nerve. I don't think sciatica has any relation to it and no acquired nerve palsies are not hereditary.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
