How Can severe Eye Pressure Be Treated?

I felt extreme pressure in my right eye about two hours ago. It happened twice and lasted about 10 seconds. I just went into the bathroom and looked up into the mirror and saw the the whole background of my eye is blood red. I currently have a slight headache on that side now too. I m a diabetic so I m a little concerned at the moment. I ve had no trauma of any kind recently nor am I ill or coughing.
