Sed Rate: any vision problems. get a blood test called Sed Rate. could be Giant Cell Arteritis ( inflammation of Temporal artery ) or consider frequent migraine. Giant cell artiritis needs high dose steroids, and may lead to vision loss.

Temporal Arteritis?: It is chronic inflammation of large arteries of the temple. If there is a delay in treating this condition it can cause permanent loss of vision in one eye. See your PCP for consultation and tests to rule out Temporal Arteritis.
