Eye Pain

[Kathy0128]

Hello. I am 19 years old and I get pains in both my eyes constantly. The pains started when I was around 15 or 16. They hurt almost every day. My right eye gets the most pain. I have been to an eye doctor like 10 times and all he ever does is give me eyedrops that don't even work. What could it be? *I wear glasses for things like driving, watching tv, and other far away things, but not for near things like using my phone and reading. I don't know if that helps with the question. Also, I get headaches when I wear my glasses.

I would suggest you see a neuro-ophthalmologist. They are the detectives-Sherlock Holmes of eye problems.  You can find one near you at www.geteyesmart.org if you live in the USA.

I'm new to this site, so I don't know if I could edit my question, but I forgot to mention that the pain is very unbearable. I can't do anything but lie down with my eyes closed and sometimes cry because nothing helps.
