Fuck! Do you know what's causing it? Pressure behind the
eyes or something?

yeah, some kind of pressure in blood vessels in the eye. it
makes me have double vision for a bit as my right eye will
point down and left against my will.

i've had about 5 migraines with impaired vision, loss of
sensation in extremities. it's the worst thing i've been
through. sorry man.
it's always right behind the eyes, makes you want to tear
them out

i saw a doctor about it. he said as long as it doesn't get
worse or more frequent, i'm probably alright. and that
there isn't a lot they can do about it anyway. so i'm going
to track how often they happen, starting yesterday.

i've also got better at controlling them the first time it
happened, almost 2 years ago, i was at work, at lunch time
and it lasted about 25 mintues. now i can kind of meditate
them away in usually under 10 mintues.

you might try palming , i'm sure you've heard about
it many times... it may help a bit. i practise it every day
and it REALLY helps me relax and reduce eye strain.

mine are more like 5-8 hours. the best thing to do for me is
go in a dark room and try to sleep.

i often get 'floaters' in my vision, a lot of the time when
i haven't eaten enough during the day. not sure what it all
means.

had another one very very mild on tuesday. no double vision
but i could feel the pressure, lasted about 1 minute.

this palming thing does seem to help. thanks tallyho.

i get a lot of migraines from my eyes as well, usually they
kinda go out of sync a little bit, like... its not noticible
on the outside, but i get an excructiating pain in my head
from it... it feels like when you purpously go cross eyed...
that feeling of strain, but it cant be stopped.

sucks. i just take a shitload of painkillers for it, and a
sleep.

hehe a few years ago, they had me brain scanned and
everything, they thought i had a tumor, last place they
looked was my eyes...

up until i was about 16 on average i would spend 1 out of
every 3 days off school because of a migraine... nowadays im
lucky in that i'll only get one bad one every 2 weeks, but
still, some glasses and it will all be remedied

are you saying i should get glasses? i wear contact lenses,
could that be responsible partially? i notice that my right
eye's contact lense is the one that is always popping out
and giving me trouble and that's also the eye that tends to
go wack. maybe glasses is the answer.
