A blinded assessor conducted three tests: measurement of the supraorbital nerve pressure pain threshold using a pressure algometer, evaluation of myofascial trigger points of the lateral rectus using the verbal numerical scale, and assessment of binocular coordination in smooth pursuit eye movements using an innovative video-oculography system. Tests were performed before work began and four hours later, and subjects in the headache group were examined when they presented a headache score of less than or equal to 3 on the verbal numerical scale.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results.\u2002The headache group presented a greater sensitivity of the supraorbital nerve and greater local and referred pain of the lateral rectus (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.05). Visual effort caused a significant worsening of these variables in both groups. However, binocular coordination after visual effort was only significantly affected in the headache group (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.05), primarily in horizontal movements.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Conclusions.\u2002The finding of a higher alteration of the sensitivity of the supraorbital nerve, the myofascial trigger points of the lateral rectus, binocular coordination, and the significant influence of visual effort in patients with tension-type headaches suggest a new clinical perspective for problems related to tension-type headaches.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/pm\/pnw292","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,25]],"date-time":"2016-10-25T15:06:25Z","timestamp":1477407985000},"page":"969-979","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Relationship of the Lateral Rectus Muscle, the Supraorbital Nerve, and Binocular Coordination with Episodic Tension-Type Headaches Frequently Associated with Visual Effort"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Anxo","family":"Cachinero-Torre","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"*Clynical Physical Therapist, Zaragoza, Spain; Departments of"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bel\u00e9n","family":"D\u00edaz-Pulido","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u2020Nursery and Physical Therapy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00c1ngel","family":"As\u00fansolo-del-Barco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u2021Surgery, Medical and Social Sciences, Alcal\u00e1 University, Alcal\u00e1 de Henares, Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,25]]},"reference":[{"issue":"9","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B1","first-page":"629","article-title":"The international classification of headache disorders: Headache classification committee of the international headache society","volume":"33","author":"International Headache Society","year":"2013","journal-title":"Cephalalgia"},{"issue":"2","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"230","DOI":"10.1111\/head.12038","article-title":"Contributions of epidemiology to our understanding of migraine","volume":"53","author":"Merikangas","year":"2013","journal-title":"Headache"},{"issue":"3","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"139","DOI":"10.1007\/s10194-008-0038-6","article-title":"Impact of headache in Europe: A review for the Eurolightproject","volume":"9","author":"Stovner","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Headache Pain"},{"issue":"5","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"703","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-1331.2011.03612.x","article-title":"The cost of headache disorders in Europe: The Eurolight project","volume":"19","author":"Linde","year":"2012","journal-title":"Eur J Neurol"},{"issue":"6","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"438","DOI":"10.1007\/s11916-011-0222-2","article-title":"Tension-type headache and systemic medical disorders","volume":"15","author":"Sacco","year":"2011","journal-title":"Curr Pain Headache Rep"},{"issue":"7","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1134","DOI":"10.1212\/01.WNL.0000118841.97273.5D","article-title":"Primary trochlear headache: A new cephalgia generated and modulated on the trochlear region","volume":"62","author":"Yang\u00fcela","year":"2004","journal-title":"Neurology"},{"issue":"5","key":"2025082212414893000_pnw292-B7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"486","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1468-2982.2000.00070.x","article-title":"Central sensitization in tension-type headache.
