I would suggest, if you had the opportunity, to get another opinion from a neuro-ophthalmologist. The eye pain that you are experiencing can certainly be from anyone of your diagnoses; the treatments for those diagnoses are however so different that you must be sure of what is causing the pain.

I've had a very similar experience. I've experienced ocular pain for years and had a malformed optic nerve. My Ophthalmologist was thinking the worst (MS, Glaucoma) but luckily sent me to the neuro-ophthalmologist who gave me a simple diagnosis of migraines. Knowing what was really causing the pain in my eye has left me much better equipped to handle it.

Don't be afraid to speak up for yourself! Communicate with your doctors about your concerns with their diagnoses. Theres often a lot more then they let on to.

As far as your eye pain, I may have one trick to help that! Peppermint oil is often sold in preparations with Lavender oil and packaged for migraine pain relief. They come creams, oils, balms,and all kinds of different forms. I've found it to be the most powerful medication for relieving eye pain and pressure. You can just rub some around your eye and let the peppermint work as a natural analgesic.

Good Luck,
Shannon.
