Short duration headaches behind eye?

I have been getting short but very intense headache behind my right eye. The pain comes and goes rapidly in waves or pulses. Moderate to excruciating for about 10 minutes then usually fades away to nothing over the next 15 - 20 minutes. It happens once almost every day at fairly random times. It has woken me up at night a couple of times.

I thought it might be related to some new contact lenses I have been trying but it doesn't feel like eye strain, the lenses are comfortable, and I can get the pain when I haven't got the lens in.

It doesn't seem like migraine because I have none of the other symptoms. Lying still in a dark room would be the worst thing to do with this headache; it helps if I am active. Exercise seems to alleviate it or at least distract me from it. A hot compress also helps.

I'll ask my opthalmologist to refer me to a specialist but in the meantime has anyone had a similar thing or any suggestions what it might be?

Could it be sinus related? I had an upper molar taken out on that side recently; not sure if that is significant.

    It's muscle related pain, from your neck muscles no less. Your neck muscles go to the top of your head. The nerves to your eyes go to the back of your head passing next to the neck muscles. When the neck muscles are tight they can press into the nerves for the eyes to cause pains on the back of the eye where the nerve is attached. When you are active you are keeping the muscles in motion so they don't get so tight as they will tighten up when not moving. To get rid of the pains you have to free up your neck muscles and here's how to do that:

    Neck

    Put your hands alongside your head so your thumbs are on the front of the muscle under your ear and your fingers are on the back of the muscle behind your neck. Squeeze your thumb and fingers together and hold. Relax your body. When your fingers and thumb touch, about one minute, slowly lower your head as far as you can, release the pressure but hold your neck lowered for another 30 seconds.

    For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.
