Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to health care magic

I am Dr Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

I reviewed your history. The complaints of pain in eyes after working on laptop, computer.... is because of dryness of eyes caused by exposure to system.
This is also called as computer vision syndrome.
The treatment is by use of artificial tears eye drops. These can be used 2-4 times per day depending on the severity.

Along this few precautions need to be taken like
1. Avoiding continuous use of system by taking frequent breaks of at least 5 minutes after working for 2 continuous hours.
2. Frequent blinking of eyes while watching system.
3. Use of anti glare monitors or anti glare glasses to minimize exposure.
4. Avoiding use of air conditioner or fan directed towards the eyes while viewing system.
5. Washing the eyes with water 2-3 times a day.

Hope I have answered your question and the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
