Default Eye numbness?
I know there have been several posts about different eye issues.
Since yesterday my left eye has been numb.. I can't feel it when I blink.. its a strange sensation.. I almost feel like my vision is going in that eye.. I can't focus properly.

I also have numbness on the left side of my face as well including my mouth.
Its not painful but I feel like my eye is closing and I can't open it.. really weird.

Anyone else have this?

Cindy

I've had that before.

Be careful if you rub your eyes, because you can accidentally rub too hard and hurt your eye when it's numb like that.

When I had that, I think I had optic neuritis at the same time. It cleared up after a month or two. I think. Might not have taken that long.

Sounds like optic neuritis. Do you have any drooping on that side of your face? Could also be Bells Palsy. Contact your Neuro.

No drooping, just numbness

Yes, I had Bells Palsy. Glad it's just numbness. Don't remember
having just numbness in eye, but it doesn't sound odd for MS.
