Eye Pain

So I was at a doctor visit for something completely different, when he asked if anyone has ever told me that my right pupil is slightly different then my left. He said because its such a small difference, it is nothing to worry about. About a week later though, I started getting terrible pain in my right eye and slight pressure on the same side of head. That eye is also more sensitive to light. but while I look at both pupils, I cannot see a difference. I went ahead and made an appointment with a eye doctor but I am curious to see if anxiety of being told my pupils are "different" brought on this pain. The pain has been going on for roughly 4 days now.

    I'm in lnterested in this. I only noticed today that 1 of my pupils was slightly smaller than the other. went into full panic mode. have app tomorrow. but tonight started feeling pain in my eye that I hadn't felt before and I believe that my panic is causing the pain.

      My eye apt is Friday, and hoping I will get some sort of answer. If you can, let me know how yours go. My eye pain has now moved to full blown head pain. Like you though, I think me being anxious and impatiently waiting for my apt is just making it worse or at least thats what I am hoping.
