Abstract

The Headache Classification Subcommittee of the International Headache Society classifies headaches related to eyes as "Headache attributed to disorder of eyes" in the International Classification of Headache Disorders; 2nd Edition(ICHD-II). It consists of "Headache attributed to acute glaucoma", "Headache attributed to refractive errors", "Headache attributed to heterophoria or heterotropia(latent or manifest squint)", "Headache attributed to ocular inflammatory disorder". But other causes of headache related to eyes exist. For example, dry eye causes the headache. This article mentions to "Headache attributed to disorder of eyes" in ICHD-II, and additionally, describes other causes of headache associated with disease of eye.
