I have eye pain in my right eye?!
Question:
I have eye pain in my right eye?
well I have a rare condition where my eye muscle is connected to my jaw muscle. Its been like that since I was a baby. some things that happen are: when I drink from a straw or chew something really chewy my eye moves up and down. I went to an eye specialist when I was a baby and he said it wouldnt effect me..
lately I have noticed that I get "eyeaches" every once in a while in that eye. Its like a headache in my eye..do you think this is part of my condition? or should I see an eye doc? my vision is 20/20 last time it was checked
Answers:
Pain in the eye is always significant. Seeing a doctor while a baby is way too long ago for it to be relative now. See a real eye doctor recommended by your regular doctor - if you do not have a regular doctor, call a physician referral service who will give you the name of several ophthalmologists -- not an optician. Do so NOW. Every day counts when dealing with your eyes. I know - I'm blind in my left eye cause I waited before going to the doctor - always too busy you know!
