I spend a lot of time on the computer. Now, I have some strange feelings in my eyes including headaches and watery eyes. While I am in the stores and driving at night that is when I really notice it, and everything seems surreal and too bright. Could this be a case of computer vision syndrome or something else?

Computer vision syndrome presents with watering of eyes with a headache. Still, there are some tips you could follow while working long hours on the computer: Sit in an upright position while working on the laptop. Take a break every 40 minutes.
Do not forget to blink at least 15 times per minute. We tend to forget to do so while on the computer.The lighting should not be from behind the laptop screen. It should come from behind you.

Additionally, natural lighting is the best. But, lighting should come from your back and not from the screen’s back. Your screen should be a good one with a retina display. Every 20 minutes, take a pause for 20 seconds and look away from the screen and focus your eyes on an object at a far distance. It will relax your eyes.
Take a break every 45 minutes for five to 10 minutes. Make it a habit whenever you click on the mouse, then you blink. The screen height should be 15 degrees below your eye line. You have a distance vision of 20/20 but get your near vision checked too on a near vision chart.
