head and eye pain
by reinagel, Apr 15, 2007 12:00AM
I have had a headache for about a month now. In the last week and a half it has become severe and my eye feels swollen and the vision is getting blurier. I have made a trip to the emergency room and spent a day in the hospital. I had a ct and mri done along with bloodwork and took a trip to an eye surgeon. They have told me that all of the tests were negative and my eye was ok. They attributed my condition to migraines. My eye will not dialate properly and the pain is the same but my vision seems to be getting worse. What is wrong.

I can't see either crack with both eyes open but when I close an eye I can see them clearly but thankfully they do not dominate my vision and are very small.
1 - My vision hasn't changed at all since last summer so I'm presuming that there is little or no progression of my lacquer cracks. In your experience, how do patients with lacquer cracks get on, in time?
2 - Would you think that it is normal for a high myopic -15 in both eyes to notice a little gentle bending of vertical lines especially on something like an amsler grid (which I know tests central vision. There are no holes in my vision, I just notice that things bend a little to the left in my left eye, and a little to the right in my right eye.
I wear RGP lenses and have had high myopia since I was 6 or 7 I'm 31 right now.
thank you
