For those who have had pain from optic neuritis, where is the pain located? Is it ever located on the very inside corner of the eye?

Mine was my entire eyeball. Hurt to move it. It was a dull throbbing pain.

Hmm. Every once in a while, when I move my eye, I get a sharp, stabbing pain in the corner of my eye, right where it "meets" my nose. I can't duplicate it (not that I want to) nor can I really figure out what exactly I'm doing when it happens--in other words, if I'm glancing right or left or whatever. I have an eye appointment in a few weeks. Not seeing any sparkles or anything.

Mine was the entire eyeball, but it was mostly directly behind my eye.

Closest description I can use, imagine root canal pain, but directly behind your eyeball. (root canal pain is nerve pain too. I thought optic nerve pain was worse tho)

It's very painful, especially when you move your eye side to side, but can also hurt at any movement of your eye, or be a constant pain. You dont realize how often you move your eye until you get pain in your optic nerve. (you pretty much move your eyes constantly, even when you think you're not moving your eyes)

I'm hoping it's not ON and that it's nothing serious--it's just a quick, stabbing pain that only lasts a couple of seconds.

Go see your eye doctor.

One thing I've learned from optic neuritis, is never ever ignore it.
