Eye Care :: Pressure In My Right Eye, Numbness On Right Side Of My Face?
Jul 6, 2014
about 4 years ago, my right eye started appearing larger than the left. I had just had Botox around the eye, and wondered if it was a result of that... But then as the years wore on the bulging eye didn't settle down, it seemed to be irritated when I drank coffee, or had stress and haven't done Botox since, but the problem persists.
Recently the problem is getting worse. Aside from the eye being open wider, the pupil in the right eye is also dilated and it feels like there is pressure inside the eye. Also the right side of my face is becoming numb. This is consistent even when I am on no medication, or drinking coffee.
I have been to UCLA eye center and they did a full neuro ophthalmology test and found nothing wrong. I have been to my Lasix Dr. (Dr. Malony) and he also found nothing. I even had an MRI for tumors - and they found nothing. I also went to a Glaucoma specialist and their feedback was -- it's probably stress related.
I am really at a loss, I know something is wrong here. I have been under serious stress in the last 4 years, but this eye problem, seems to getting worse and I am worried that it could become a larger issue. I want the right side of my face to feel normal again, not tingly and numb, with a bulging eye. I've tried eye drops, because my eye was dry after Lasik, and I have tried eye drops for allergies, but neither have fixed the issue.

My mother was using a toothpick the other night and poked herself in the mouth pretty hard. Her face started to swell really big she took some Advil that seemed to help with the swelling i am just wondering how or if this is an urgent thing to have looked at, as she and my step father are now on an island and far away from any health care! I am worried she could have an infection!

I am a healthy 52 year old man and just had my annual eye exam. The ocular pressure in BOTH my eyes is 19. I know the range is 10-21, but 19 is on the
high side of the range. Should I even be remotely concerned?

I'm a 41 yr old who has been suffering with tingling and numbness in my face, hands and feet and my tongue deviates slightly to the right. I have also had periods of dizziness. I have been hospitalized twice in the last month. Every test has come back negative... One neurologist suggested I could be having Tia while another said its not. I have a strong feeling that my menstrual cycle may play a part in this. I was looking at post from 2011 and their were other women who have similar symptoms!

Last month i had a very bad bout with the flu. My whole body was paining. It started with my upper legs. Almost like someone gave me charlie horse in my muscles. Then my feet and bottom of my feet started paining. I could not even walk. I wore memory foam slippers on my feet the few times out of bed. My hands had the same painful sensitive sensations as my feet. a few days later my lungs started to hurt and I had something pneumonia. When i started recovering, the pain and numb sensations stayed on the bottom of my feet, my hands legs and arms. Not to mention the weakness that still exist in my limbs. Also, which is confusing and worrying me most now is the numbness on my face and in my mouth, it feels like dental freezing leaving my mouth. It's been at least a month since i recovered from the flu. I have seen my Dr. and have been scheduled for a CT scan. Has anyone had these symptoms before?

I'm a 30 year old female who lately has been going through a tough time. I have always been a worrier, especially when it comes to health. Since I was 9 years old I've worried about different diseases (especially after googling) which made me convinced my life would end several times in my life. Right now I'm going thru a bad phase which I don't know what to do. It all started last year when I started getting lots of numbness and tingling in face and legs. Then in November I started getting left sided chest pain which is 24/7 stabbing pains. I've been to emergency twice since Feb. And they did EKG, xray and blood tests which supposedly came out fine. Then, in February I started getting heart palpitations, skipping beats. At this point I was convinced I have heart disease. 3 weeks ago the mild dizziness started where I felt I was gonna faint. During the time it started I remember going out to eat with my hubby and kids and I literally felt like I was not there, as if I was in another planet, everything felt unreal. I've been really tired too. I've been seeing a cardiologist who did an EKG, heart Echo. And tomorrow I'm having a stress test and a holter monitor for 24 hours. He thinks its anxiety. But I am not convinced. I'm just extremely scared of dying because I have 3 children who are all under 7 years old. By the way, I did want to mention that from October thru March I was going thru a big worry with the law. Don't want to get into details but I was very worried for 5 months that I was going to go to jail. Everything turned out fine however, I don't know if that worry triggered physical anxiety symptoms.

Hiya for the last 7 months I have experienced visual problems and hearing loss that make me feel dissociated/depersonalized (out of it) 24/7 and I am unable to function and unable to concentrate. I get a lot of pain in my back shoulders and neck, and a lot of pressure in my face head eyes and neck, that radiates to my entire body and makes me extremely fatigued. these are the main symptoms that are bothering me the biggest one being "this out of it" feeling! does anyone else experience this?

For about a week or so I've been having some slight numbness. It started as tingling in my lower face, but now much of my body has a slight numbness to it. It's not complete numbness, as I can still feel pressure/pain/temperature, but it seems to be getting worse. I've had a small amount of back pain recently as well, but no real injuries/trauma that I can remember. Can a simply back issue be causing this diffuse numbness? Is there any chance this is all permanent? Or could a chiropractor/PT set things straight?

I have had derealization, head pressure numbness, constantly dizzy and at night bright lights are very blurry and bright with halo around them, I have had a couple headaches also, this all started after doing a very heavy weight lifting exercise call deadlifts, ever since then I have had derealization 24 7 along with all the other symptom besides headaches I have had 2 so far, I have been like this for half a year 6 months my worst feeling is the derealization, I feel as if nothing around me is real like I'm in a cartoon and it gives you a spacey dumb feeling, I have natural high blood pressure and was taking creatin while working out maybe I caused a anyresum in my brain that deals with reality perception.

I have just come out of hospital after being treated with IV antibiotics for a Quinsy. One of the antibiotics was making me feel sick so a nice administered cyclizine through the cannula to relieve the sickness. Within seconds, my toes went numb and my head swam and I couldn't see. This progressed to the feeling that my heart was going to burst as it was beating so fast and my head felt as if it was going to pop. Everything was swimming around and I couldn't feel my arms or legs and they wouldn't respond when I tried to move them. My mouth was numb and I was slurring my words. I was terrified! My blood pressure had rocketed and my heart was racing. The panic button was hit and I was quickly given cortisone and antihistamine which began to calm things down. It was a horrible experience. I honestly felt as if I was either going to have a heart attack or a stroke. I'm only 41 and have three small sons. My vision was affected for many hours afterwards, walls billowed and flat surfaces looked as if they were covered in netting. Very disturbing.

About a week and a half ago I woke up to my left eye completely swollen shut. Doctor gave me antihistamine and antibiotic to cover allergic reaction and infection. Swelling significantly went down but never 100%. Eyelid still throbbing on occasion and throbbing to side of eye and in corner. Swelling has moved to side of face and under chin. Had cat scan and ultrasound and nothing abnormal but everyone notices the swelling except my doctor down plays it. Something is going and I'm super frustrated with what it could be.

This morning I woke up with my right side of face all swollen, red and my eyeball is leaking. The right side of my face, jaw, temporal area and neck have given me problems for months and months before the doctors diagnosed PMR and GCA. They still have not done anything the really confirm GCA and I am worried that I may have had a mini-stroke as I woke up all numb in the right side of my head one morning and slowly the numbness went away and then pain was horrible. I have pain in the right side of my head 24/7 but the SWELLING appearance is new. Should I be going to the hospital?

I keep getting red, blotchy and sometimes dry skin on the side of my face that I sleep on (i.e. the one I rest on the pillow). It is usually there when I wake up in the morning and it's getting embarrassing because one side of my face is clear while the other one is red and blotchy. It extends to my neck occasionally too.
