Hello. I've been having some bad eye pressure for the past few months along with some pain. It's 99% of the time in my left eye. I've been to three Ophthalmologists and have even had a CAT scan done but nothing has been resolved. It comes and goes randomly, as does how bad it gets. The pressure sometimes is felt along my nose, other times behind my eye, other times around it, and other times along my eyebrow. It kinda feels like there's not enough room for my eye in my eye socket. It hurts whenever I look around far. Interestingly, my upper left jaw is constantly has pressure as well, could they be related? My right eye can tear up relatively easily, but it's very hard for my left eye to tear up, which is really annoying. Also, I can leave me left eye open for minutes at a time without having to blink (I haven't tested how long I can have it open) or getting that stinging feeling, whereas my right eye has to blink unusually much more than my left eye. When faced with wind, my left eye can look into it for minutes upon end without having to blink and can't even feel the wind hitting the eye itself or the eyelid, and my right eye being way more sensitive than it should be and having to blink every second or more to look into it, and my eyelid almost feeling like it's not blocking any wind from hitting my eye when it's closed. Can anyone here please help me on what is going on with my eyes, both pressure and sensitivity to being open and wind? Thank you if you read this far.

    Often eye pain is associated with chronic sinus issues. Have you had your sinuses checked?

    You could also try seeing your dentist about your jaw. Could you have some sort of misalignment that is affecting the nerves around your eye?

    Dont play with your eyes ,seeing how long the left eye can bear the wind blowing on it may be adding to your problems. Your tear capacity may be at fault in your left eye so you could also try using some lubricating drops in it several times per day.

    Hope you find an answer soon.
