What Is The Cause For Pain Behind The Eye And Sensitivity To Light?

After diving into the deep end of the pool my husband felt a lot of pressure behind his eye. Shortly after his eye was very sensitive to the tea light candles that were on. It's been 13 hrs. And the pain is still behind his eye and cause headaches and still has sensitivity to light.

what ever may be reason your husband was under deep end of pool. He must not be wearing a eye protecting device. this will apply direct pressure over eye. now he should under go complete eye check up. Fund us examination, IOT measurement should be done. Now the cause of pain photo sensitivity can be reasoned out. once the examination is complete cause can be diagnosed precaution for future can be taken
