What causes orbital pain?

Orbital pain may be caused by various factors: 1. Eye fatigue: Prolonged viewing of electronic screens, reading, or performing detailed work can lead to eye fatigue, causing discomfort around the eyes. 2. Elevated intraocular pressure: Conditions such as glaucoma can cause increased pressure within the eye, leading to orbital pain. 3. Eye diseases: Conjunctivitis, keratitis, eye muscle strain, or nerve tension can cause orbital pain. 4. Sinusitis: Infection or inflammation of the sinuses may spread to the adjacent orbital area, causing pain. 5. Refractive errors: Uncorrected vision problems and the resulting effort of the eyes to focus may also lead to pain. 6. Eye injury: Minor impacts or bruises may cause orbital pain. 7. Other systemic diseases: Conditions such as autoimmune diseases or increased intracranial pressure may also present with eye pain. Note: If orbital pain persists, is accompanied by vision loss, red eyes, increased discharge, or headache, prompt medical attention should be sought.
