Pressure: you might probably have been grinding your teeth the whole night causing a lot of tension headaches.

Eye pressure/pain: Feeling eye pressure/pain can be due to (most common to least): dry eye/tear film unstable; one is starting to get sick or virus/bacteria starting to invade sinuses; headache/migraine; narrow angle; high eye pressure; rarely: inflammation in eye; eye infection; tumor in or around eye; more info: eyedoc2020@blogspot.com. An eyeMD can help determine cause.
