Has anyone ever heard of pressure on the eye or eyeballs causing accelerated motion sickness or nausea. My flight surgeon said I might be getting sick in my aircraft because I wear contacts. To add to this, the other day I had a very bad headache over my left eye. My contacts were in and they were seated correctly, it caused me to vomit. But when I finally removed them the headache went away within a minute. He also said this may be because the nerves in my eye and cheek are connected to my inner ear. could this be possible?

My doctor said he thinks it MIGHT be possible but has never heard of it.

If you had a one sided headache and vomited, I think you likely had a migraine headache. Migraine often has preceeding neurological symptoms like blurred vision, nausea, vertigo, numbness and tingling; these symptoms are caused by the headache, they do not cause the headache.
Highly unlikely that the contacts are a cause. Inner ear problems can cause eye problems like spinning vision and nystagmus, not the reverse.
