A member asked:
What causes pressure in my eyes when i wear sunglasses, eyeglasses and contacts and what can i do about it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye strain?: Your prescription may be off. Often, an inaccurate prescription will create a pressure sensation, as your eyes try and compensate. I would recommend you have your prescription double checked by your eye doctor.
