What Does Pain In The Left Eye Indicate?

I am having pain in my left eye. It s like a surge of pain I have throughout the day. I also have the same surge of pain in the left temple area and works it s way down in front of my left ear. Sometimes the pain is intense. It comes on quickly and lasts for a couple of seconds or so and then is gone. But it comes back in seconds or minutes later. I also have a dull headache. I do not have an eye infection per the eye doctor. Please tell me what this is or what it could be a sign of.
