Can be due to cough

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Cough can lead to increased pressure inside the eye leading to pain and discomfort.
However, I will suggest you to consult an ophthalmologist for proper examination, investigations and treatment accordingly.
Cause of cough should be evaluated by a physician and you should take cough syrup and antibiotics, if needed.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
