Get CT scan Brain done.
Detailed Answer:
HI
Thanks for posting your query.
There are very few causes of severe headache but Headache with blindness in the right eye with disorientation ( not able to recall her society name ) indicates the problem in the Brain.
I would recommend you get a CT Scan Brain done as soon as possible and revert back .
Note : There are other condition in brain problems like Migraine which can cause these kind of symptoms but first we need to make sure that there is no serious issue in the brain.
Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

Yes this case has to be refereed to Neurologist.

1. Migraine
2. Sub Arachnoid Hemorhage.

Brief Answer:
You can wait
Detailed Answer:
HI
I will answer this both professionally and personally.
Professionally since she is comfortable you can wait till she finishes her exams unless she gets a repeat attack of headache as severe as it was.
Personally if she was my daughter I would have not waited.
