I started out by going to my regular ophthalmologist -- thought I'd be walking out with eye drops (!) but instead, I walked out with a referral to a neuro-op. I'm so sorry this has dragged out for you.

To tell you the truth, I'm scared to have the MRI orbits, they put the scanner on your numbed eye ball.
I can only search my insurance online up to 100 miles and there is still no neuro-op on my insurance list.
I think your right "It sounds like your eye doctor knows it's ON but doesn't feel like he's equipped to treat it" (or decide whether or not it should be treated).
