Eye pain, also known as painful eye, is any form of discomfort of the eye.[1] Often it is associated with a red eye.[1]
Causes may include disorder of the eye itself such as corneal abrasion, corneal ulcer, zoster ophthalmicus, glaucoma, uveitis (iritis), optic neuritis, and orbital cellulitis; and referred pain such as cluster headaches, migraines, and sinusitis.[1]
