Title Eye Pain: A Neurologic Perspective - Secondary Headache Disorders
Creator Kathleen B. Digre, MD
Affiliation John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah School of Medicine
Subject Eye Pain; Trigeminal; Aneurysm; Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome; Intracranial Pressure
Description That the eye would be a source of pain from a neurological cause should not be surprising since the trigeminal nerve, especially the first division, innervates the meninges, arteries and veins, and the nasal sinuses. Involvement of the first division of the trigeminal nerve causes referred pain, which is felt in and around the eye. Almost all intracranial disease processes be they vascular, tumor, pressure, infection or inflammation have the ability to cause eye pain and headache.
