Morning.  Peri is the months/years leading into menopause: which is literally the last monthly period.  However, 1 doesn't know until we've been free of bleeds for at least 12 months and even then .........

Headaches can be caused by dehydration.  Try keeping an eye on how much you drink as well as soups etc.; your urine should be straw coloured in the day.

Is the Elleste Duet helping symptoms?

Peri often triggers migraine, even in women who have never had them.  If that is what you are having, I believe there are some migraine threads on the forum.  Do a search and see if it matches your experience.

It could be meno related but it may well not be. I would get your eyes tested and see your gp in case something is going on. Have you had any earache?
