My future Father in Law exhibited signs of a cluster headache when he was 30 years old(27 years agi). Of course, then they didn't have a clue about cluster headaches. He called the doctor, and the doctor told him he was having a sinus headache(funny, they still do that). After rolling around on the floor, his wife took him to an eye doctor, instead of the emergency room, because it was his eye that was hurting so bad. Come to find out he had glaucoma and the pressure in his eye was through the roof. That is how he found out he had glaucoma. The doctor apologized to him and said he never thought about glaucoma because he was only 30 years old...........I have had an eye exam recently, but I would recommend if anyone else is having cluster headaches, it might behoove you to check out this possibility too.
