See eye doctor: Some of your symptoms may be due to allergies and there are drops for that, however the eye pain is not typical of allergies. I suggest that you see an eye doctor as soon as possible to get a diagnosis and treatment.

Red eyes: Most likely from dry eyes which could be for many reasons including allergies. I would start with natural tear drops before bed while trying to get in to see an eye doctor.
