Eye pain and tearing

I'm not sure if this is eye-related, or more symptomatic of a neurological problem. For the past three days I've been experiencing dull pain in both eyes, but far more pronounced in my right eye. It also feels like there is pressure in the eye and the right eye has been tearing up as well. The pain is dull, feels slightly better when pressure is applied. I've also been experiencing headaches on and off, always more pronounced on the right side. What does this mean and would an eye doctor or a GP be the first step towards figuring it out?

I can relate to your problem, I saw a eyeMD and she said that it is severe dry eyes only. drop like lotex and restasis will help a lot. See your eye doctor

Dear 12345676720775,

I would recommend that you seek the care of an eyeMD to determine the diagnosis.
