Welcome to HCM. Do you notice any localized irritation , redness in right eye when you blink? If you have persistent pain and no previous history of sinusitis or migraine, pl do have an eye examination done. It could be a stye/prescription change /related to your contact lens wear( you have not mentioned which eye you wear the lens though ...)/dry eyes. Try using OTC lubricant eye drops every 4-6 th hrly, warm compression over the painful eye along with Motrin until your examination.Hope you get well soon. Take care.
