I had the exact same problem (pain behind the eye, somewhat impervious to ibuprofen), and I knew it >had< to be a result of the meds.
After going to the eye doctor to make sure I did not have glaucoma (I didn't), I suspected it might be some kind of med-induced migraine. It feels like a vascular headache localized right behind the eyes. This past summer I began taking calcium and magnesium supplements after reading an article about their deficiency in migraine sufferers. Since then, I have had no more problems with the eye pain. Could be just a coincidence but it is worth a try!
