Has anyone else ever had pain like this?!

Has anyone else ever had pain like this?

I wore hard contact lenses from age 13-28. That was before they had "gas permeable" lenses. I had trouble with my left eye from the beginning. My opthamologist told me my eyes were very dry, and to try artificial tears. That helped somewhat. By the time I was 28 I couldn't stand to wear the contacts anymore, because the pain in my left eye felt like there a hot branding iron on my eyeball. When I popped the lens out it was fine. Then a different opthamologist told me a was a pefect candidate for "Radial Keratotomy." That was before "Lasik." Ever since the day I had the RK, I have the same pain in my left eye. After seeing over 60 doctors around the country, they all agreed that drug therapy was the only thing that could help me. So I've been on morphine and codeine for over 20 years. The doctors call it "optic neuralgia." Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? Thank you.

You need to see your physician to clarify this diagnosis. There are a few things that can cause this. I am not a doctor, but treating it with morphine and codeine seems rather radical to me. In this day and age there should alternative pain relief choices. Have you seen a specialist whose specialty is this type of problem?
Good luck
