A member asked:
Is it okay to get a headache when you get a popped blood vessel in your eye?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably not: The combination of a headache and a conjunctival hemorrhage is concerning for very high blood pressure. This is something that should be checked out right away especially if there are visual changes.

It may be: It is not altogether uncommon to either experience a brief episode of discomfort around the time of the popped blood vessel (subconjunctival hemorrhage), or even a mild headache. If blood pressure is significantly elevated it can cause both headaches and subconjunctival hemorrhages, and can lead to a stroke. See your doctor immediately to rule out blood pressure issues.
