Hello
It seems from the history that you are having glaucoma and you are on treatment with anti glaucoma eye drops.
Headache can be seen in glaucoma as a result of uncontrolled glaucoma resulting in increased intraocular pressure.
Hence I advice you to first rule out increased intraocular pressure as a cause for headache before consulting neurologist.

Thank you
