Last night I woke up to go to the bathroom and when I went to get back into bed my left eye had a stabbing pain for about 5 seconds then went away. Any ideals?

maybe you just had some debris in your eye which can cause this. if it keeps happening just get it checked out.

Hello,
One of the first symptoms of Trigeminal Neuralgia that I experienced was episodes of stabbing pain in the eye. It could also indicate Cluster headaches. You should see your GP asap if it happens again. Be as detailed as possible.
There’s some very good information on this site about both conditions.
Good luck
