Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The symptoms you mentioned above can be seen in many conditions affecting the eye. Some amongst are below here:

1) Glaucoma
2) Pappiloedema
3) Optic neuritis
4) Retrobulbar inflammations

A detailed examination and certain tests like tonometry, fundoscopy and visual acquity test have to be performed to identify the exact cause for the problem you have and treat it well.

Do consult an Opthalmologist for the above.
