Suggest Treatment For Eye Pain With Sensitivity To Light

I am having issues with light sensitivity in my eyes it hurts to move them as well have had for 5 days now. My friend did a test and covered my eyes then had me pointed at a light my eyes did not get smaller they did nothing but stay the same size if I look up or to the side all the way it cause a lot of pain. I was told it was allergies I have never heard of eyes not changing in size cause of it. Nor do I have a stuffy or runny nose noting but my eyes hurt and get a headache after a time because of the pain. Only time it don’t hurt is when I have my eyes closed.
