Recognizing neurological damage in corns?

I've been having trouble regulating my cornsnakes tank temperature and she's definitely gotten to be to about 93 degrees max (I've since gotten better control over her tank temperature.) She seems okay but I'm really worried this could've caused neurological issues or some other damage I can't immediately see. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
 
I think you have nothing to worry about. That certainly isn't the ideal temperature for her, but they can handle some fluctuation in temps. Was that the temperature of her whole enclosure or just the hot spot?
 
I have about +/- 32 corn snakes in racks that are kept in my garage for years. This time of year and the rest of the summer it gets up to low 90s for most of the day. Snakes get hot. Some wrap themselves around the water bowls. Some soak. Some don’t do any wrapping or soaking. I haven’t notice any problems other than they may be uncomfortable for a portion of the day.
We do get afternoon rain storms a majority of the summer days here in south Florida which helps cool things down.
