Hello.Diagnoses to consider are migraine, tension headache and eye diseases such as glaucoma (elevated eye pressure). You must go to an ophthalmologist for measuring eye pressure. In my opinion, Naproxen 500 mg thrice a day can be taken to improve your pain.Please consult your local doctor for prescription.
I wish you good health.
