A member asked:

My left eye has slightly moved inward. it's moderately painful. when i look to the left my peripheral vision gets cloudy. can i still sleep?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Concerned for you: Abrupt onset of visual changes combined with abnormal eye movement is a very concerning combination. Since these symptoms could be a result of serious illness, it would be wise to seek immediate medical attention.
