What Causes Flexed Eyebrow And Dialited Pupil?

Hi,
I have had a head cold and apparent right tooth abcess which was hidden by illness for the past 3wks. This am I awoke with my left eyebrow flexed and my left pupil dialited. Huge amount of mucus shifted from my right side to my left side overnight. I applied ice and am taking amoxicillan for the 3rd day in a row. I was terrified. My eye still hurts. but other symptoms went away during the ice and coffee this am.
