Eye Pain and Touch Sensitivity

Ask an Eye M.D. Answer Archive

Question:
What could be a reason for eyeball pain? My eye feels swollen and is sensitive to touch on the eyelid and underneath the eye.

Answer:
Unfortunately, without an exam, this is a question with too many answers extending from sinus disease, to connective tissue diseases, to simple dry eyes. See your local ophthalmologist for a thorough examination.
