I had my upper right wisdom tooth pulled 2 days ago and I've had a horrible migraine ever since. I know I should expect a good amount of pain, but most of it is my eyes. It's so bad that when I'm around bright lights I get severe sharp pains in both of them. The hole where the tooth was doesn't even hurt. I know all the nerves are connected, but I couldn't really find anything about extreme eye pain. Is all this normal or has it happened to anyone else?

Call the oral surgeons office. We all are different and you could be having a side effect from the surgery (meds used during the surgery) and meds being taken now. GL

HELLO,
FIRST THIS ISN'T NORMAL. THERE ARE NO NERVES THAT CONNECT THE NERVES OF THE EYES WITH THE NERVES THAT CONNECT THE TEETH.
THIS EXTRACTION MIGHT HAVE BEEN A TRIGGER FOR A CONDITION LIKE WHAT YOU'RE EXPERIENCING.
IF THIS CONTINUES SEE A NEUROLOGIST.
