Brooklyn eye

Eye pain and puffiness caused initially by airborne irritants such as smog and dust commonly found in New York City -- sometimes lasting for days.

Colloquial term, common in the Northeastern United States.
Person 1: I woke up with a terrible headache around my left eye.

Person 2: Weren't you in New York City yesterday? You have Brooklyn eye. Get some fresh air and it should go away in a couple days.

NOTE
To VanBuren: Notice I said the accent that New Yorkers are POTRAYED as having. I admit to saying "cawfee" sometimes, but I don't sound like I belong in "The Godfather" series.
People from Brooklyn tend to be stereotyped, especially our accents.
