Lately, I have been getting this sharp pain in my head followed by pain in the left eye. I mentally just try to focuss myself back to normal. THis occus mostly when I am relaxed in bed and sometimes when I am driving. Does anyone know which doctor that I should be seeing? I am in perimenopause now, and it seems every directs all the symptoms to that. Thank you

An Ophthalmologist specializes in this...I think our eyes play tricks on us at this point in life...Hope you find your answer...

Take care,

Honey you need to see an (Ophthalmologist)..
An optometirst makes glasses and can do eye exams but an (Ophthalmolgist diagnoses diseases and treats them)..So, it is important you make appointment for the right doctor otherwise you'll be paying extra needlessly and only the one can treat eye disease..
