How long has this been happening? Did this just start? So it seems to me like you've got a bit of facial swelling as best I can tell but I am not entirely sure. I don't know what that means but it wouldn't hurt to talk to a doctor about it. There are a lot of causes for it so it's a good idea to talk to one just so you can tell what your issue is. I wish you luck. Keep us posted.

Hi:
This sounds like sphenoid sinus inflammation. It's a type of sinusitis. I am surprised that you are not in some pain, however. Sinus infections can get way out of control and cause you other problems. If you've been treated for this before, you know what I mean. This may just be another symptom that you haven't experienced before. If this were a result of glass frames that were too tight, you would have had pain by now for sure, and it would probably be obvious that the glasses were the problem. See out an allergist and get some advise of treatment in case it is sphenoid, before it gets out of hand. Take care and let us know how you are doing.
