Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache And Double Vision

Consult an Opthamologist.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Patti 7 c,
Thanks for the query. I have read &understood your problem.
Double vision can be due eye muscle problems... cause could range from hormonal causes like diabetes or thyroid problems /muscle weakness out of stress of adjusting in refractory errors,retinal or cataract problems , problem with nerve supply of eye, head injury causing concussion or diseases like epilepsy or myesthenia gravis.
Eye jumping as you describe seems to be eye twitching ... can be caused by eye infections/irritation or fatigue of eye(stress,lack of sleep,refractory error ... lence problems,retinal problems)
Looking at the sequence of problems in your case..(long standing ,nonresponding headache ,weakness of vision , double vision &eye twitching)...suggests your problem to be from lence problem ( undetected refractory error,cataract) or retinal ptoblem....
But looking at the long list of possibilities &your age nearing 60.... I feel it's necessary to exclude all other causes by consulting an opthalmologist.
A through eye examination &few needful investigations would clear the picture. .. exact cause of the problem would be pointed out followed by specific treatment.
Treatment would depend on the basic cause...It can be just by wearing glasses/ lences/ eye exercises OR medicines for controling causes like diabetes,graves disease,myesthenia gravis,epilepsy if presrnt OR surgery ( cataract,eye muscles) as per need.
* Thus with careful evaluation with expert advise &specific treatment would relieve you of the trouble sum eye problem.
I hope that answers your query. Any follow up query is welcome.
Please close the query if you don't have any doubt to be cleared.
Thanks.
