Hello,

All these symptoms point towards high blood pressure in you. Get an ambulatory blood pressure done. Raised ocular tension may also be secondary to high blood pressure, it needs complete investigations and treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. RS Gulati
