Is Having Eye Pain After Injury To The Back Of The Head Normal?

I accidentally hit the back of my head yesterday on a door frame. I didn t have a headache then, just a little soreness at the spot of contact. Today, I noticed that my right eye, on same side ofthen my head that was injured is tender and sore when I blink. Is this anything to be alarmed about? Otherwise, I feel fine; no headache or dizziness. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
