Can stress headaches cause eye pain?

Yes: Tension headaches usually affect the muscles in the neck and head. This can sometimes result in a pressure-type pain seemingly in the eye on the affected side. If you are having vision loss or eye redness with the pain, that could indicate something else. You should be seen by an ophthalmologist to be sure.

Yes: You need to see an ophthalmologist to determine if the eyes have hidden disease causing or contributing to the stress headache.
