Get examined: Your symptoms sound severe and progressive. You should be seen to evaluate for this soon. May be as benign as migraines but may be severe as a brain tumor, increased intracranial pressure, optic neuritis or other problems.

Eye exam: Also possible brain scan. Visual field testing and see an eye doc for diagnosis and treatment.
