"Eternal Vigilance": Waking up in the morning as usual, or in the middle of the night? Drug and alcohol hangovers aside, it could be something minor, like the residual of stress, staring at a computer, a virus,need for glasses,etc. But if it persists or worsens over the next two weeks you might want to get examined in person. If it goes away shortly after getting up &/or with Motrin, that's reassuring. But be vigilant
