Headache/Pain when Eyes Moved To The Side?

From a week ago i started having this weird sharp pain in my forehead when i move my eyes to the side (Left side). I dont feel the pain when im looking straight at something but as soon as like i look at something in my left side i feel this pain in my forehead and in the back of my eyes. Some days i have a headache too but sometimes its just when i move my eyes that i get the pain.

I went to an ophthalmologist and he checked the pressure, and the back of my eyes and said that my eyes are perfectly normal I was thinking maybe its a migraine but i dont have a headache sometimes but i still feel the pain when i move my eyes.

Any ideas?

And how long does it take for the pain to go away?

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
In your case I feel it could be a case of ‘ocular migraines’ or ‘ophthalmic migraines’. These produce headaches along with visual symptoms ranging from static vision to temporary loss of vision. Please discuss this possibility with your doctor. Normally, ophthalmic migraines do not require treatment. But if these symptoms recur regularly then you may need medication to reduce the frequency and/or severity of attacks.
There is a chance there is a foreign body impacted in the conjunctiva. There are fluorescent colors that identify such foreign objects not normally visible in the eye.
Hope this helps. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
