It seems like inflammatory condition of the eye.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir,
Welcome to Health care Magic
I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

It seems from the history that you are having headache associated with red and sore eyes.
These symptoms indicate inflammation of the eye in the form of inflammatory conditions like uveitis.
The treatment is by use of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs. The specific treatment of the eye condition is by use of topical anti-inflammatory drugs.

The other conditions to be considered are refractive errors of the eye or inflammatory conditions of the structures surrounding the eye like inflammation of sinuses.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you

with regards
