Sinus or cornea: Most pain in or around an eye is from sinusitis or headache. Pain reliever & decongestant should relieve it. If not, or if it is getting worse, go see your doctor. The other possibility is that you have dry eye syndrome. This causes corneal pain. Lastly it could be due to an inflammation in (called uveitis) or around the eye. You need to see an eye doctor to really rule this out.
