I, too hve pain in my left eye and blurred vision (my left side was affected due to the stroke). The opthomologist did ststae my eyes suffered nerve damage (nystagmus). He stated that the pain was due to extreme dry and not the stroke. I had an eye exam prior to my stroke and my vision was ok. I am going to schedule an eye exam to see what they tell me....I hope to follow up with better news.
Sorry to hear about your stroke :(
I don't have vision deficits, so I don't know what that is like. However all our strokes are different, leaving us with different deficits.
Rather than focus of how "odd" it may seem to someone else, I would suggest is discussing with your doctor(s) possible therapies for your vision.
