I took that visor off on a ride and shortly after on the same ride the pain reduced substantially.

That’s a good point and I thought about this during yesterday’s lunch time ride. My prescription sunglasses are too small and the sun comes though the top of them, sometimes making me want to tilt my head back to block it out. I was conscious about this during the ride and it was better.
