Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

As per you complain and presentation of symptoms abscess after tooth filling is most probably due to tooth infection leading to DENTAL ABSCESS..
headache and pain in eye is due to radiating pain from tooth and you should consult your dentist and get an x ray of the filled tooth done and in case if there is infection in the area bellow the root tips of the tooth then removal of the filling followed by root canal treatment of the tooth and antibiotics and painkillers can help..
As of now take IBUPROFEN for pain relief..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
