Condition analysis:
That might depend on the nature of the vision problems you are concerned with, and the medications you are taking for them.  Some cases of pain in the trigeminal distribution can be caused by discrete benign tumor, AVM, aneurism, MS plaques, or other structural anomalies close to the trigeminal nerve. You'll need high resolution imagery of the brain to resolve root causes for this sort of thing.

Nutrition and Vitamins: An upcoming approach to treat various diseases and disorders is Medical Nutritional Therapy. Scientifically based, it aims at healing health problems with the use of nutritional diets that are created to meet a patient's needs. In this approach, dietitians work out a nutrition plan based on an individual's requirement, which is aimed at improving the nutritional balance in the body and helps the person manage pain, stress and fatigue associated with disease in a better way. This therapy takes into account various aspects like age, type and progress of disease, family and medical history, lifestyle, medications, etc. Dietitians usually work with doctors to chalk out a diet plan that is best suited to meet the patient's needs.

Along with nutrition, it is essential that your body receives a daily dose of multivitamins, specifically omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B and magnesium. These are required to strengthen the cranial nerves, including the trigeminal nerve, which can prove helpful in managing pain and stress.
