The eye is a good place to start. If you still have a lot of pain, put the ice pack on the back of the head at the base of the skull. ACE makes a great soft reusable compress. I made myself cotton pockets that I just slip the pack into and tie around my head. (I work for an Oral Surgeon) The base of the skull is called the occipital. It is directly related to the sinus. I put the ice in both places. You should see what it looks like. LOL!!
