Pain, lazy, blind.

I've had problems with my right eye since I was little. The doctors have looked at it and tried to help me but can't do much.

Problems are:
Pain, lazy eye, can't see out of it all the time, I go blind once in a while in my right eye. It seems like there is always something in it, it feels like it's pulling forward and it's heavy. I have to keep it squinted or it hurts really bad. I can't go out in the sun due to it and the dark makes it feel weird to the point I can't really explain. I just see lots of lights and lines in my right eye and I can't see to look pass them.

I don't want to live like this forever, what can I do?

I've had an MRI and went to a eye doctor, that's about it. I have really bad sinus problems and had it worked on. The Surgeon couldn't do much for me. I'm not sure if you're aware of this statement by a doctor but he said that the muscle is deteriorating? I'm not sure what that means and how it has to do with my Sinus or eyes? Does it have to do with my eyes?

The lines are wavy and white/pink and green. Mostly White but in the dark I get more color. Sometimes I get black lines that are thick and cover most of my sight.

I must add this as well, I lose my eye site in my right eye daily, about every hour and the reason is odd but my neck/back of my head, is somehow part of this. If I don't turn my neck, I lose it, the second I turn my head far enough, I get a rush to my eye and my site comes back. The back of my head gets really hot and my eye starts turning black. I do this everyday, all day and have for years, even after my surgery.

Sound weird?

Hi there a couple of things that can distort vision.  Obvioulsy you definllty know your symptoms and how it begins for the eye.  Are you in the states or possbily in the NY area.  My husband has an eye problem and he went to a great specialist in NY.  Though this sepcialist is a retina specicialist you never know what they may see on exam or what type of testing they will make you have done.  Eyes are so so important.  If its possible for you to get to NY let me know I will email the office information.  When i searched for my husband for his problem these doctors are considered the best in the field nationwide when I met them you know why.  They are not only thorough but listen compeletly.  The first visit was about 3 and a half hours going from room to room taking tests.  I am sure each persons testing is oriented towards their own problem but I have never seen more competentcy in doctors and that says a lot to me

Hi I understand about the issues going to NY its tough but it was just a thought in case you lived nearby.  I can give you there phone number if you want, just let me know.  Maybe its possible if you call the office they can recommend someone in your state to see.
