What Causes The Right Eye To Narrow After A Bad Headache?

A few months ago, a delivery service company dropped/threw a heavily weighted hand truck onto the parking lot. The noise was so loud on impact I thought a sonic boom had gone off in my right ear.( I was standing about 3 ft away) . I sought treatment at an emergency room...my right eye had closed completely. In the last few months I have been under a lot of stress at work. I have mild to severe headaches ( I never have had headaches in my life). During a bad headache...my right eye narrows and looks like it is closing up. This is constant lately. Could this be a result of the loud noise from a few months ago?

Firstly sound is not sonic boom. it is only aloud sound. it can effect your ear but not eye. any way you should ginfor a compete eye check up, include refraction, fundus examination. and measurement of IOT.Any abnormality detected should be treated.
