HI,
although temporal arteritis is more common in female but it should be ruled out, it can be cavernous sinus thrombosis , or it can be other pathology of eye including orbital cellulitis or it may be migraine. to diagnose it complete pain history and associated symptoms with physical examination is required, you can also take help of CT scan or MRI to rule out the suspected pathology.it is better to meet a neurophysician and go for its management.
take care .
