Dry eye is a common, multifactorial disease currently diagnosed by a combination of symptoms and signs. Its epidemiology and clinical presentation have many similarities with neuropathic pain outside the eye. This review highlights the similarities between dry eye and neuropathic pain, focusing on clinical features, somatosensory function, and underlying pathophysiology. Implications of these similarities on the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye are discussed.

“…Periorbital neuralgias respond well to oral medications used for neuropathic pain, such as gabapentin, and local anesthetic blockade (43–45). Lacrimal and infraorbital nerve neuralgias have clearly distinct pain topography from trochleodynia (53, 54) and are not further discussed.…”

Diagnosis and Management of Trochleodynia, Trochleitis, and Trochlear Headache

Migraine and tension-type headaches (TTHs) comprise a significant burden of neurological disease globally. Trochleodynia, also known as primary trochlear headache or trochleitis, may go unrecognized and contribute to worsening of these headache disorders. It may also present in isolation. We review the English literature on this under-recognized condition and describe what is known about the theorized pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and differential diagnosis. We also present a management algorithm for patients presenting with trochleodynia.

“…The current description of supratrochlear neuralgia completes the spectrum of periorbital neuralgias. Cranial neuralgias that may cause periorbital pain include supraorbital neuralgia, supratrochlear neuralgia, infratrochlear neuralgia, lacrimal neuralgia, and infraorbital neuralgia . While all these disorders are considered trigeminal branch neuralgias, they are distinct from trigeminal neuralgia .…”
