Hi all,
I have been having pain behind my left eye for a few weeks and an occasional buzzing feeling in the eyeball itself. And mild issue with light sensitivity and glare. But no real vision issues. Also have no sinus issues or teeth problems, at least I think not.
I had my routine MRI last week and just read the report. It references hyperintense signal left intraorbital optic nerve.
I was told I had prior ON in the left eye. I never remember having vision issues and always just thought it may have been when I had bad vertigo for 6 weeks and just didn't notice because everything was spinning. I do remember now that I had this type of pain right after the vertigo and was told ocular migraines. It resolved and never had them again. Until now. The vertigo is now thought to have been undiagnosed MS, 13 years prior to diagnosis. So the eye pain was right after a flare.
Has anyone had optic neuritis without vision issues?
I will probably call neuro to see what he thinks and whether I should head to opthalmologist.
Thanks for any input.
