Hello,

Since you had a head injury & are presently feeling dizzy, pain, have blurry vision, you should visit ER urgently. Get clinically assessed before going to sleep. Pain can be due to migraine but sometimes it is also due to serious medical conditions.

Even mild injuries can affect the eye causing visual dysfunctions, severe injuries can cause blindness or double vision. Get physically examined by a GP, get blood & Imaging (X-Ray, CT, MRI) done to detect any pathology. Get treated at the earliest. Your treatment will depend on the pathology detected.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
