Most probably it is pain of migraine....so is getting relieved by analgesics ..but if not responding ....u should consult a physician for prescription of drugs like propanolol or SSRI flouxetine etc....simultaneously get evaluated for simulating diseases like pregnancy induced hypertension.....ophthmoscopic examination for hypertension induced retinopathy ...so opthalmologist consultation should be taken for eyesight also
