How To Treat Severe Pain Around Right Eyes?
My Partner has been having stabbing pains around his right eye for a couple of months now and it makes him feel very sick. He has been to see his GP who has prescribed pain killers and Propranolol but these have not had any effect. I am really worried about him.
Please can you help?

Hello
It seems from the history that your partner is having severe pain around the right eye.
Propranolol and pain killers are effective in treating migraine.
Since it is not responding to it other causes like refractive error, sinusitis need to be considered.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination to rule out refractive error and sinusitis and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
