Eye Pain on bending

Hi all

At my current age I don't panic over vague symptoms that may or may not mean anything unless they are persistent or get worse. And I also know that not all physical problems are D related. But I've been having a symptom for a couple days and wonder if anyone has experienced anything similar.

I've been getting a moderately strong pain in my right eye either when I stand up or worse yet, bend over. That's about it, other than that I'm fine. Anyone experienced something similar?

I forgot to say that my ophthalmologist said at my last visit that my pressure was borderline, but I looked that up and it said that pressure doesn't have symptoms.

Thanks, soosie. Treating sinus would be an easy place to start! I didn't know that pain when you bend down was characteristic of sinus.

Keep in mind that when you bend down blood rushes to the head, something that could affect sinuses as well as the eyes.
