What could be causing a very sharp pain over the left side of the eye?
As an eye doctor, I hear this question frequently. An infrequent pain that might be described "shooting" or "ice-pick-like" in one eye lasting a second or less, while quite painful, is generally not a sign of a more serious problem. Evaluation by an optometrist or ophthalmologist is highly recommended, however, to rule out any underlying cause, especially if the pain is occurring with increasing frequency or severity.

Cataracts are usually treated through cataract surgery if other methods of vision improvement have failed. Cataract surgery is typically an outpatient surgical procedure and is usually very successful in restoring vision.
