I had a face laser hair removal session yesterday and the technician accidentally squished hard with her hand on my laser safety goggles while doing my upper cheeks... Now for context this was the goggles which are opaque and shaped like swimming goggles.

It was only for about 5 seconds and it was really uncomfortable for me too... After that i asked them to pause when they realised they were squishing my eye.. I have headache now and the eye feels like very heavy.... Now i don't know whether this can raise my Iop or damage my nerves. Should i check with a doctor for iop or will it go away on its own?
