HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI am really sorry for your husbands' health, it could be metastasis, that might have affected the optic nerve, I would advise you to give him simple analgesic any NSAID at this stage this may help him according to his clinical condition giving potent painkiller is not advisable, this could cause respiratory depression at this stage again when the pain threshold achieve the plateau then the intensity of pain will be reduces automatically, this is natural and physiological phenomenon, take a good care of your husband, have nice time.
