Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

You have not mentioned age or gender...
Temporal Arteritis is a prime possibility
Papilloedema should be considered.

See an ophthalmologist first / then a neurologist / it could be serious, if not diagnosed and treated...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
