It can be sinus orbital inflammation. test your vision and fundus. IOT. may be measured. If vision and fundus is normal and tension is normal then glaucoma retinal invovment can be ruled out for sinus take x-ray PNS. if sinus involve ment is detected then anti biotic analgesic and nasal decongestant can be used.

Ophthalmologist Dr. Dadapeer K's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pain in the eye and pressure around the eye.
These symptoms are because of eye problems like uncorrected refractive errors and inflammation of eyes and ENT problems like sinusitis or primary headaches like migraine.
Hence this requires evaluation to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
