Eye headache in only one eye?

Question by jaybee: Eye headache in only one eye?
This used to only happen on occasion, but lately I’ve been getting eye headaches like once every one or two weeks. There’s a lot of pressure behind my left eye. It’s always my left eye, never my right. It becomes very sensitive to light, and sometimes it gets so bad it throbs. Is this a sinus headache or is it something else?

Sounds very similar to the migraine headaches I get. Same thing, it only affects one eye and always the same eye. Make an appt. with your family doctor and he will probably give you medication that is used to alleviate migraine pain. Good luck and be well.
