Airmaster: You might consider going to a NORA certified optometrist for evaluation. Many of your symptoms can be attributed to "indirect optic nerve trauma" which is significantly different from "optic nerve damage". Dizzyness without actual vertigo, nausea, lightheadedness, headaches, panic-like response in crowds or stores, trouble reading, etc., can all be caused from indirect trauma to optic nerve. Vision therapy was a God-send for my daughter. She is doing very well (no headaches in a long time now) but I scan through this site occassionally for people who might benefit from vision therapy.
