Ocular Pain: Ocular pain is an indication to see an Ophthalmologist as soon as possible, especially if the pain has persisted and is worsening. The compartment pressures in your eye need to be checked, and a fluorescein dye exam to perform a Seidel test. Go to ER where Ophthalmologists are on duty please, NY Eye and Ear Infirmary is a great place to go. Good luck.
