Hello,Welcome to the HCM,
As toxocara canis is larval Parasitical infection ,and if larva migrate to eye they can damage to retina.Intermittent hit over head can be because of vascular changes in eye or brain or just a migraine. My opinion would be get checked by eye specialist and neurologist and discuss further.
You may surf facebook discussion groups for more knowledge regarding your disease..
You may further ask here too if you have any further quiry.
Regards,Dr.Maheshwari
