Hi, i wanted to asked is it normal to have constant pain on your lazy eyes after long hours of reading or watching tv. When i see something too bright i immediately got tears in my lazy eye cause it hurts. Lately, the pain seems to be getting worse and it reaches the back of my neck. I always feel disoriented when that happens. I stumbles to stuff and i lose my balance easily. After i slept, i always feel better though. FYI, i come from a country where this kind of things are taken lightly, why? cause my last doctor didn't even spend 5 minutes with me and i kinda lost trust in her. Plus, i haven't told my parents that it has gotten worse.

Hello. Thank you for posting.

If this has gotten worse, you really need to be re-evaluated, perhaps find another doctor if you have lost confidence in your current one. Eye pain is not typically a symptom of this condition. Below is a resource that may help.

*The medical term for lazy eye is “amblyopia.” Lazy eye occurs when your brain favors one eye, often due to poor vision in your other eye. Eventually, your brain might ignore signals from your weak or “lazy” eye. The condition can result in vision impairment and loss of depth perception.
