Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hi
Please do not come to conclusions before any detailed examination or an investigation.
Headache with sore eyes could be just a stress induced one. If you are too much confused about it,
- visit an ophthalmologist and get your eyes examined for any refractive error or dry eyes problem.
Then with the reports,
- visit your physician for a routine check up and to rule out the cause for your headache. Go for further investigations under your physician's guidance.

So stop worrying and be practical. Let us know after your eye examination.

Take care.
