I'm just 24years
is there any person in the family having same issue? You have to be examined to rule out myopia, deficiency in vit A, retinitis pigmentosa. These are possible causes.

Good Morning Doc, I have had intermittent pain around my temple area starting August 2022. Then I started to have double vision and pain inside my eyeballs. I went to an eye clinic, eyes checked, nothing came out of the check except I was given glasses which included UV filtering which improved my visual clarity greatly. I was also given maxi tears for dry eyes.

Symptoms still persisted despite wearing glasses and using eye drop. On the request of an ER doctor, I have done a CT of the brain which found nothing. I have seen an ENT for possible sinus issues and they found nothing still. As of now, I have dull persistent burning pain feeling in both eyes, intermittent shooting pain feeling at the back of both eyeballs from time to time and a dull headache in the temple region.

Your advise will be highly appreciated.
how old are you? Aside the pain and ache, what about the double vision? Has it resolved?

Good morning Doc

For a long time now I always have this eye problem that comes and goes.
It comes in the form of a small reddish but painful lump on one of my eyelids and after some days it will disappear and reappear on the other eye to continue with the torture
I've have taken a lot of pills for it but none seems to work well,what can I do about this ?
possibly an hordeoleum. Go for an eye examination. There are possible factors causing its recurrence

you'll be wasting your money trying to self medicate. Why not convert the money you'll be using to do trial and error in self medicating to make an appointment at the eye clinic?

Male 30. When I wear my glasses, things are very clear but once I take them off, I feel like the double vision is worsening. As of now, the pain in the temple and and behind the eyeballs is my major issue.

when you were examined, was your eye pressure checked? Also check to ensure your glasses are not tightly fitted on your face. Do you usually grind your teeth?

Yes. My eye pressure was checked and the doctor says everything looked okay. Nothing significant. I actually went to two clinics because I wanted a second opinion. There was no memorable discovery in my eyes.

The glasses are not tight at all. I wear them easily and take them off easily. Also, I don't think I grind my teeth, I don't take notice of it.

ok is the eye pain a constant thing? Does it worsen with any particular activity or at certain times of the day ? Do you experience the pain on wakings?

Good Evening Doc. Trust you had a good day.

The pain comes on randomly. Sometimes I wake up feeling it, other times it comes up as the day progresses.

good evening . Yes i had a good day; thank you.
Just to be sure, is the pain in one or both eyes ? Do you regularly use your glasses and does the pain come on when you are on glasses ? Does your eyes feel gritty, dry , peppery or itchy?

Good Evening Doc,

The pain in eyeball comes in one eye at a time, then may switch to the other eye.

I wear my glasses immediately I leave my bed and take it off only when I want to go to sleep.

I will say peppery best describes the feeling most times. Feels like a burning kind of sensation.

Good day Dr,

I am currently struggling with my vision now, I don't see things afar and I tend to strain my eye muscles to focus on images afar. Affecting me later on in the day, making my head banging. I struggle using PC daily that I have to place it nearer to my eyes before I can make adequate use of it.


I have visited a D.O sometimes ago and I have a glass. But it's not helping matters. Glasses tend to give me more pain In the eyes and when I complained when I got the glass earlier on, the Dr said I will get use to the glass and I will feel the pain no more.

the image is very blurry. I cannot get a good look at what's there but from the description you gave, it could be a pinguecula or pterygium and when inflammed could give you those symptoms you are having.
