A member asked:
Help plz! can sinuses cause eye problems at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could: there are sinuses all around the eye socket. The Frontal sinus is in the forehead which is on the top of the eye, the maxillary sinus is in lower part the eye and the Ethmoidal sinus is located on the nasal site. If there is an inflammation, allergy or infection in the sinus could cause swelling in the sinuses then it could lead to pain around the eye, or eye irritation.
