Dr. Wicks not only told me what had happened to my eyes the previous Thursday, but she pulled up images on Google to show me images of Optical migraines. Then she explained the pain I had felt was because of my dryness. She said when she pressed on my eye lid there should have been an oily excretion and there was not. So she prescribe a solution. I was very thankful.
