Overview

There are multiple conditions which lead to eye pain. It is commonly confused with other symptoms like headache, sinus pain.

Causes

Causes are classfied as common causes , based on organ system and in alphabetical order.

Common causes

The common causes include:

• Blepharitis
• Corneal abrasion
• Conjunctivitis
• Stye
• Foreign bodies
• Glaucoma
• Uveitis
• Optic neuritis
• Sinusitis
