ANSWER
Migraine headaches are often only on one side of the head and for many people the pain is centered around the eye. Cluster headaches are also only on one side and are always centered at the eye.
If you have never had migraines before, and this is your first time experiencing this type of headache, you need to seek medical care. If it is the worst headache of your life, you need emergency care.
For best results, seek out the help of a Migraine and Headache Specialist. These doctors are specially trained in the diagnosis and treatment of headache disorders beyond the scope of neurologists and primary care doctors.
Other Answer
Might be a stroke. Go to hospital.

How do I prevent migraine headaches through diet?
Yes, it is possible to prevent migraine headaches through dieting. Having a deficiency in magnesium can trigger headaches. Eating foods containing magnesium, such as almonds, leafy vegetables, grapefruit, salmon, apples, or brown rice (to name a few) all aid in preventing the trigger. Also, eating foods rich in Vitamin E, such as oatmeal, seeds and nuts, or yogurt all help improve circulation, which can help prevent headaches. Lastly, be sure to avoid drinking too much alcohol, artificial sweeteners, or caffeine, as these are common triggers for migraines.
Does coffee have any nutritional value?
The nutritional value of coffee is ranging from very very little to even less. People drink it mainly due to its content of Caffeine of which is a stimulant. It can also help people having a headache, even ease migraine. Even though it can prove useful to some people regarding migraine and headaches, it can also cause them. Migraine can get worse from coffee. If having drunk coffee for a while, your body will react to the lack of caffeine if you suddenly stop. This reaction can be a headache or even migraine. Nutritional value though... Not anything worth mentioning.

What is optic migrain?
There are two different kinds of migraine which people will refer to as optic migraine. The most common one is also call ocular or acephalgic migraine, ALSO called a silent migraine. This is a migraine where the aura, or vision impairment (along with other symptoms) occurs, but no pain occurs. While it can be great not to feel the pain of the migraine, people who have this type of migraine can be just as disabled, because the aura interrupts their life. It is just as important to seek treatment from a neurologist to treat these migraines, particularly if you are having more than two a month. A second type, not to be confused with ocular migraine, is ophthalmoplegic migraine, which are no longer considered to be migraines - but nerves which control the eyes acting out, causing drooping eyelids, watering eyes, usually on one side of the head.
