Get eye exam!: You are overdue for an eye exam. You should get an eye exam ASAP. If the eye exam is ok and you don't need new glasses, then you should get evaluated by your pediatrician or primary care doctor regarding the headaches. You might have eye strain, dehydration, fatigue, migraines, hormonal issues, poor nutrition, lack of good sleep, or any number of possible medical issues.
