A member asked:

Have iih. opthomologist says no pressure on eyes; but i have really bad eye/ear/head pressure and pain. i've a one sided sinus infect. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sinus or IIH: IIH may cause headaches, even if the eyes are not affected. So this could be the cause. Sinus headaches are also a possibility. These are handled differently, it would help to have more information to decide what the cause is before trying the treatment.
