Chronic pain around left eye when i blink heaviness around left eye

Chronic pain around left eye when i blink heaviness around left eye

I am having pain in my left eye ONLY when i blink. The pain is somewhere near the eyebrow. But i am not able to exactly
figure out where the pain is. It may be little below the eyebrow or may be right inside the eye. The pain is towards right and middle of the eye and away from my nostril. It pains like a swollen muscle and sometimes feels like someone is touching a wound there with each blink. I also feel little heaviness and pinches of pain only around left eye.The right eye is just fine. Each blink is very painful for me.

The pain has been there for last 5 months. The pain subsides for a few days randomly and then starts again. Also i have
noticed that if i move my eye too much in different directions, the pain starts slowly and worsens. But this is not always
true. Sometimes i wake up with the pain sometimes its fine.Even when the pain on blink subsides, i feel little heaviness in
he left eye and feel like a bit swollen (not very sure of swelling).
I have been to 3 ophthalmologists and all of them said that there is nothing wrong with my eye. Only there is
concretion on my left upper eyelid. But they said that concretion should not cause this much pain. I had got my CT scan of brain and orbits done a month back and everything was fine there.
Please note that When i blow my left nose (pain is in left eye when i blink), thick, white and very sticky mucus comes out.I have to blow my nose with force otherwise it would not come out. I had a CT scan of my sinuses done 1 year back and the ENT doctor said that it is allergic.

dont know.  sorry!

if the CT scan was done 1 yr ago but the pain has only been in the last 5 months, you could very well have impacted sinuses.  it may be time to go have another CT/sinus work up.

if the sinus workup is negative, think neurologist...
