my son is 11 years old he had a vision test done at school when he was 7 and it was cleared, seven months later my eye dr. said his vision without his glasses he is almost legaly blind. for a couple years now on and off he has had severe migraines and vomiting with them, in this passed year it has gotten worse...in this passed month he has had the migraines and vomiting about three times a week. i was wondering if it could be his eye sight or does he need his head checked out. please help.
Hi, Thankyou for your query. Brief answer .he has to be checked pituitary mass (brain mass). Detailed answer... As I have gone through your sons' history, it seems that he must be evaluated for pituitary (a brain part) mass, as it can cause visual loss and headache both. Since migraine can happen at this age but not that frequency is common with decreased vision. My opinion would be got MRI brain with contrast (if he is not allergic to contrast) done and discuss with neurologist. Hopefully my answer is helpful. Chat Doctor.
