Face and eye pain

Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone has ever experienced what feels like sinus pain without sinusitis? I have pain in the middle of my forehead, upper jaw and around my eyes. My eye feels like I have been poked in it sometimes! It feels worse when I wear glasses, which I have to do most of the time as I work on screens, but I've changed my glasses to ultralight ones and it has made no difference. I don't have any cold or flu symptoms so sinusitis doesn't seem to fit. I don't really know where to start in sorting this out but it's driving me bonkers. Any advice / experience gratefully received!

Could it be allergy related? You could try a steroid nasal spray

Thanks QueenofHiraeth! It’s great to get a reply and thanks for the suggestion. I don’t think it’s an allergy. It doesn’t seem to go along with anything in particular. Frustrating!

It sounds like eye strain - is your prescription correct?

Could be trigeminal neuralgia. Depends if the pain follows the nerve.
