Pressure while ascending

I was diving last weekend and after I got to the bottom and had equalized my ears. I started toward the top and as I got close to surface the pressure was pushing from the inside of my eardrum so hard that it felt like it would blow out. But once I broke the surface it SLOWLY subsided to normal. I am very concerned because I know I was near rupturing my eardums.

I am curious if there is some sort of reverse equalization process for the return to the surface.
