Migraine: This is a type of headache characterized by severe pain, often accompanied by other symptoms such as sensitivity to light, dizziness, and ringing in the ears (tinnitus). The pain can be intense and affect the entire head. Migraines can also cause eye pain.
- Treatment often involves medications to relieve the symptoms and prevent future migraines. Resting in a dark, quiet room can also help.
-
Tension Headache: This is a common type of headache characterized by a feeling of tightness or pressure around the head, which can also cause pain in the eyes. It can be triggered by stress or muscle strain.
- Treatment usually involves over-the-counter pain relievers, rest, and stress management.
