Thank you, Dr. Hagan!
I appreciate you taking the time to respond..
I'll do just what you suggested! *s K
In young healthy individuals, especially women on BCP, the most common cause is "eye migraine" or "Ophhthalmic migraine" which have no headache. In older individuals it can be a sign of disease of the heart, brain, blood vessels or eye. Use the search feature and archives to read about "eye migraines".
you do need to see an ophthalmologist, Eye MD. Find one near you at www.aao.org

I think I should mention that for years I've had ulcerations in the conjuntiva of both my eyes running from the nose towards my iris' .(both look minor and you don't notice it if you aren't looking for them).. at that time I was told it was due to dry-eye problems.. the ulcer that was in my left eye is gone now but the one in my right eye still remains, albeit it doesn't appear to have grown in size or come up over the edge of the iris more than before. (meaning it looks about the same as usual).
I see now the title "ophthalmologist" not optomologist as I spelled it.. LOL
