Pressure behind eyes: Feeling eye pressure/pain can be due to (most common to least): dry eye/tear film unstable; virus/bacteria starting to invade sinuses/getting cold/flu; headache/migraine; narrow angle; high eye pressure; rarely: inflammation in eye; eye infection; tumor in or around eye; more info: eyedoc2020@blogspot.com. An eyeMD can help determine cause.
