Could Pain In Upper Part Of Eyeball With Movement Be Due To High BP?

I am experiencing pain in the upper part of my eyeball especially when I move my eyes. I have never had this before and it has lasted all day. Could this be related to high blood pressure due to increased salt intake? Also, was just diagnosed with a sudden floater a few months ago.

The pain is not related hypertension. you may have hypertensive retinopathy. Inccreased salt can be related to hypertension. Sudden increase in floater isalso not connectedto it. It is neurogenic or muscular pain. Fundus examination may be done. Take anal gesic tablet like hifenac two times daily after food. Get your bloodsugar tested.
