It's possible but worth getting your eyes tested to rule out possible sight deterioration. It could also be you are dehydrated so be sure to be drinking 8 glasses of water ever day.

All the best

Hi Charlotte,

If you have symptoms that are concerning you we would always suggest that you see your own doctors for assessment.

Best wishes.

Hi Charlotte as Laura says go and see an optician. I started getting headaches after 5 months of lockdown wfh and turned out to be changes in eye prescription after looking at screens all day. Headaches largely gone.

My wife underwent a liver transplant this past February. She started taking medication for Hep C a couple months ago. She also started getting bad headaches and eye pressure around the same time. Her doctors feel the headaches are a side effect to the Hep C medication. She is just now off those meds and still getting the headaches. From what I understand the side effects even after stopping the meds can last for weeks or even months. So, not sure if its the medications or her new liver causing this? I found your question interesting as she is experiencing headaches and weird eye pressure/pain. She's had major complications after her transplant, so she's experiencing many different side effects to medications and various health issues.
