    Question Question

    Hope someone can help. My prescription is -2.25 and I often wear contacts although when I don't I'm often without correction except for driving. When I go without correction I notice a pain in one eye after a while, although it doesn't happen with close work it's usually when I've been out. My dominant eye is the opposite one and the one with the pain is the weakest of the two. right now they both have the same prescription. The painful one always used to have a slightly stronger prescription. In the last test I had, a year ago, they both came out the same.

    Is this a common problem or something more serious? I am due for a check up but am a bit apprehensive about what the reason for this might be, so thanks to anyone who can offer some guidance.

    You can get some ideas, but please do not substitute this forum for professional care from your Doctor. No one can tell you exactly what is wrong without both seeing you as a patient and having the necessary credentials.

    perhaps its a tumor. Maybe you should see an eye care professional rather than an opinion board. Oh, its just your eyes, right? This board should not be for this.
