Brief Answer:
You can continue work.
Detailed Answer:
I read your question carefully and I understand your concern.
I remember our last exchange and it is relieving that you have had those tests and that no dissection or other cause for Horner has been found.
As for the question at hand, whether computer work can worsen things, you shouldn't worry about that, there is data to support that. It might be advisable to make 10 min breaks every couple of hours or so to avoid strain, but that is a general advice I would give to anybody, not specific to your issue.
I remain at your disposal for further questions.
