You should see your eye doctor to get examined with this in mind. It is not possible to make a diagnosis without examining you and the doctor who knows you best can examine you and figure out what is causing your symptoms. Your eye doctor can also refer you to a specialist, if needed. So, see your eye doctor for diagnosis and treatment, if needed. Good luck!
