Eye pressure and pain. Along with Dizzyness and Spins

I am having a feeling of like pressure behind my eye.  When I look in the mirror my left eye looks "dead"  I have seen 3 separate doctors and nobody can see what I am talking about.  There is a constant numb pain in my left temple and forehead.  This is accompanied by and anxious feeling and dizzyness and faint feeling.  Also having spells where I feel like I am spinning.  I went for a ct scan and it came back normal, also blood work came back normal as well as the eye specialist says that my eye is healthy.  Any Ideas?

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
In your case I feel it could be a case of ‘ocular migraines’ or ‘ophthalmic migraines’. These produce headaches along with visual symptoms ranging from static vision to temporary loss of vision. Please discuss this possibility with your doctor. Normally, ophthalmic migraines do not require treatment. But if these symptoms recur regularly then you may need medication to reduce the frequency and/or severity of attacks.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

Yes it has been over a year since I had a glucoma test though.  The last time this hit it was October so it doesn't seem to be seasonally associated.

I am seeing and Opthamalogist tomorrow.  I did however receive some results about hypothyroidism, so my doc is going to look into that.

Did the eye specialist give you a glaucoma test?  Do you have seasonal allergies?
