I have been experiencing pain and pressure feeling behind my left eye for a few years now, at odd times, not frequent. It comes on sudden and can last for a few hours to a few days - looking periphally is painful, and the pressure is constant. I am far-sighted in my left eye, and my right eye is near-sighted with astigmitism, and I wear glasses. When the pain occurs, my sinuses are clear, and I have no headaches or migraines, it's just the eye pain. Sometimes I wake up to the pain and pressure, and other times it comes on during the day, usually reaching it's peak pain after an hour (abour a 6 on the pain scale). And now for something totally different, yesterday morning, I was up sitting and talking with my mom, and my right eye decided to look to the left, on it's own, while I was looking straight ahead. This was only for about 15 seconds, but made me very disorientated, and dizzy. My mother who was looking at me at the time, said it had obviosly moved in it's socket. What can be causing the problems in either eye? I don't have insurance, and the Dr. at the low-income clinic does'nt listen when you tell him your concerns or symptoms - I am 52, female, and a diabetic, and am currently up to date aboput my disease.
