Eye problems.....?

Question

I dont know why but my eyes have suddenly become ultra sencitive to light and its giving me migranes. I told my mom about this but she jokes saying "what next your gonna rob a blood bank?" I want to know if this could be a serious problem or if im just overreacting

Answer 1

i'm not really sure but i suffer from migrains al hte time beacuse i have double vision, the doctor gave me these colourful films that i can put over books and it stops migrains, apparently but i'm not sure you can have that put in glasses to stop the light giving you problems

Answer 2

Kind of a stupid statement about the blood bank.  Photo-phobia can be a simple problem or something more serious. I'm not sure why a responsible parent wouldn't address a health concern. Unless you complain a lot. Most insurances would cover an office visit for that, so it may just be a small co-pay to find out.  Do you get the migraines first? Photo-phobia can be a symptom of the migraine.

Answer 3

If it's a sudden event, you may have something inflammatory going on.  You should see an eye doctor.  Impress upon your mom that you are not kidding and that you are concerned....
