Pain behind eye
by momtimes4, May 06, 2008 08:03PM
I was wondering if you could give me an idea of what is happening with my eyes. I have been having dull pain behind both eyes for about 5 days, and the pain increases significantly in my left eye when I look suddenly to the left or right. The pain also increases when I gently press on the eye with the lid closed. My vision seems unaffected. My pupils are equal and reactive to light. I have sinus/ allergy problems for which I take Zyrtec and this is no worse than usual (especially for South Louisiana in the spring). Can this just be eye strain or is this something I should go to the dr. for? Thank you for your time.
