phobia of the eyes

[me6281]

Im 31 years old and have been dealing with my situation since I was about 7. I dont understand why I cant lay in the floor next to a coffee table without feeling like the corners are about to impale my eyes. I use to beable to turn over and the feeling would go away but now I have to leave the room. I cant even leave my kitchen cabinets open because it feels like their going to jab right into my eyes. I hope someone can help me because I feel like Im just a crazy person. Thank You in advance to anyone who can give me any kind of info on this.

I experience the same thing. In fact, about a year ago it got so bad that I had a lot of trouble falling asleep because I felt like things around me would I maple my eyes and they were extremely uncomfortable, so I have been wearing an eye mask to fall asleep and it helps tremendously. I have noticed that it's worse while lying down. But I am with you here, it's been a problem since I was very young and I've never come across an eye doctor who could help me.

No clue but if its been stable for 24 years I would move on.
