Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Better consult eye specialist once for any change of power.
It is better to try an analgesic like Ibuprofen for a couple of days to exclude headache due to strain or exposure to sun.
A viral infection may also start with headache.
Sinusitis may also give rise to headache.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
