Do Seizures Occur In The Eyes?

I have pain that feels as if I have been hit in the left eye with a bat and stops at my cheekbone. I have been an ophthalmologist and a regualr eye doctor, they both say my eye is fine. I have been told this is a type of seizure but can not find any information on that. Have you heard of this before?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pain in the eye.
Seizures are involuntary movements and they won't occur in eye but shaky movements occur in eyes and they are called as nystagmus.
The pain in the eye can be because of inflammation or because of uncorrected refractive errors and requires evaluation and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
