What Causes Severe Pain In The Eye During Air Travel?

i was descending in an aircraft 1 month ago and had a severe thumping pain behind my right eye. then a very sharp pain shot up into my right side of the head. it went away but ever since, i have been very discomforted. two courses fo antibiotics to kill a supposed infection have not seemed to work
