Eye pain

[vin24]

hey, I think this all started when I put in a pair of contacts that have been sitting in my draw for a while. I don't know if they were a previous prescription and not up to date, but as for the last 2 weeks I have been getting pain mostly in my right eye(95%) and then moves to my left eye(5%)of the time.  feels like the pain is directly behind the eye.  . on a pain scale to 5 its about a 2.  I did notice a scratchy throat, and very little nasil drip scattered throughout the day, and also noticed increased sunlight sensitivity.  

any though would be greatly appreciated

My thought is see the optometrist or ophthalmologist that fit your contacts.

Im going on Wednesday, but do you think the headaches can be from the contacts causing a sinus infection, i have never got headaches that lasted for 2 weeks like this one.

contacts don't cause sinus infections and rarely headaches. Try and see the fitter on Monday.
