Eye socket pain refers to a specific type of pain that occurs within the eye socket, the bony structure that surrounds and protects the eye. This pain can manifest as a throbbing or sharp sensation, often localized to one eye. It can be quite distressing and interfere with daily activities.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike general <b>eye discomfort<\/b>, which can be caused by factors such as dryness or strain, eye socket pain tends to be more severe and persistent. It is often associated with underlying conditions or injuries. <b>One-sided eye pain<\/b>, also known as <em>one-sided eye pain<\/em>, can occur when the pain is primarily experienced in a single eye.<\/p>\n<p>Individuals experiencing eye socket pain should pay attention to accompanying symptoms such as <em>headaches, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and swelling around the eye<\/em>.
