If the ophthalmologist finds nothing see a neurologist.

I have made an appoitment to see an opthalmologist, however I am doubtful if they will find anything wrong as they haven't in the past. I must say that after 10 days free of pain it returned today with avengence. Always in the same place, the forehead over the right eye and a pain and not a headache and is so bad I have to take pain killers straight away or it will immobilise me. Thanks for listening.
The contacts anesthestize the cornea. Your history suggests the cause of the pain is on the surfact of the cornea. I would return to the Ophthalmologist and discuss why he/she feels this is happening

If you have already seen an eye MD, wait for Dr. Hagan's response.
Dr. Hagan will review your post. Sorry for the delay. As you know eye doctors are very much needed everywhere. We are so fortunate to benefit from his expert help.

I am in the UK and I meant ophthalmologist, sorry. I have had eye tests in the past and they have not come up with anything to do with my eyes for this forehead pain.
Hi,
I am not a doctor. I am a community leader, and an eye patient.
Are you in UK? I was wondering why you say "optician." Irregardless, you need to see an eye MD, an ophthalmologist, to give you an examination. He can check you for glaucoma, and give you better feedback on the pain. This is very important. Find one @www.aao.org. in the US.
The doctor will review my post.
