Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
If the temporal artery is a bit superficial, it is normal to feel it beating as a pulse. It is a normal anatomical variation. However if you have accompanying headache, you need to check out for temporal arteritis and for refractive errors of the eye.
Hope this helps. Do let me know if there is any thing else and keep me posted. Take care!
