Eye redness, pain and blurredness

[sandychi]

A year ago i woke up feeling sever pain in my left eye more of my forehead jus above my left eye which reflected to my eye and caused it to be red, my eye was burning so much that i couldnt open my eye , i went to the doctor and i was given some antibiotics which i applied but after so months , looking at d  computer, doing my normal work cos im a student it came back and up to date i have been visiting the  ophthalmologist , but the pain and redness keep reoccuring and my vision becomes blurred, these happen every now and then, though after the treatment three times, i was asked to go for a thorough investigation, which invoved the  tuberclosis test, all the test came negative, but d chest xray, according to them that the saw some spots which d suspected tuberclosis, and the said that my  eye problem was as a result of the tuberclosis suspected. So i have been placed on anti-TB medication for three months now, but unfortunately , the eye is still back and i have blurred vision every now and then, im a female , 35 years of age , this problem is weighing  me down every day, dont know wat to do and is disturbing my research work. tx sandra


This discussion is related to red eyes and burning eyes.

It's an outside shot, but if the pain and redness keep occurring in the same eye, you might want to google 'cluster headaches.'

It's a one-sided headache, sometimes considered a migrine variant,  that can cause symptoms such as you describe.

IF YOUR NOT GETTING HELP--SEE AN NEURO-OPTHAMOLOGIST FOR FURTHER EVALUATION OF UR EYES. MY EYES ALSO BURN BUT I THINK IT'S SINUS/ALLERGIES AND I HAVE DILATED VEIN. I ALSO HAS SPOTS ON MY LUNGS--NOT TB--COULD BE FROM CHILDHOOD WHOOPING COUGH-INFECTIONS----SEE A PULMONARY MAN FOR YOUR CHEST---NEURO-OPTH FOR YOUR EYES. WHEREVER YOUR LOCAL "UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL" IS LOCATED, FIND BOTH DRS. THERE---THAT'S A TEACHING HOSPITAL WHAT U NEED. GOOD LUC,
