What Causes Red Eyes Along With Headache?

I have a very red eye, right side. Plus a headache right side forehead and top right back of my head. This is the third day this week I’ve had it. White of my eye completely pink, no discharge, no itching. Could it be tied to blood pressure? My blood pressure this week was 132/80 when I donated blood.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This could be uveitis. It causes redness and pain in the eye. Uveitis is an inflammation of inner layers of eye. Another differential is angle closure glaucoma but that is really painful. In any case I want you to get a slit lamp examination done as soon as possible.

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