Hello,
It seems from the history that she is having lump behind and below ear associated with blurring of vision and headache. The lump is probably because of enlarged lymph nodes as a result of infection or inflammation in there drainage area.
Hence she needs evaluation by a eye doctor to rule out any inflammation and which may be a cause for her blurred vision also.
Thank you
