Have it checked out!: While scalp sensitivity radiating toward an eye or ear may seem benign, some possibilities are more risky and deserve a check up.

This is especially true with any changes in vision.  Follow up with your primary or eye md.

Not sure: Wearing a helmet? Speed of the ball? Where did hit you? Trauma to the head can affect vision by direct injury to the optic tracks, the nerves that connect the eye to the brain, or the vision areas. You can develop a bleed on the surface of the brain called the subarachnoid hemorrhage that can cause damage to the brain. If in doubt, you passed out or have focal neuro deficits go to er immediately.

Question 10

i had a sudden sharp headache on the left side of my head, above my left eye. what is concerning is that my left eye blood vessels bursted. ?

Accepted Answer

See eye doctor now: Have you had your eye pressure measured?  I think you need to see an ophthalmologist immediately to make sure that you don't have glaucoma which can lead to blindness if not promptly treated.  An alternate answer would be migraine which is of concern also if it occurs for the 1st time at your age.
