fear of pointy objec ts

please please help me
I have been searching the internet for a few weeks now, and I think this is as close as I have come to someone understanding what problem I have.
While I read through the comments, that most have problems with pointy objects, I have the same symptoms, but cannot look at things like chain link fences, cages, etc.  When I do, the back of my eyes and even sometimes nose ache. What bothers me, is that it doesn't always immediately go away when I avoid the triggers, sometimes it is days on end with my eyes feeling painful.  
  I can remember having these pains/feelings since I was young, I would love to know why.
my email is ***@****

Please see a neurologist.  You may have visually evoked epilepsy.
