Eye strain is usually caused by prolonged near work or prolonged computer work. I would suggest that you take regular breaks from your concentrated task and if this doesn't help then I would go and see your optometrist as you may have some uncorrected hyperopia.

Eye strain always caused by prolonged computer work,prolonged vidoe game on smartphone.The smartphone ,laptop,PC,TV all of this digital devices emit a lot of blue light which can damage your eyes.The light from screens is mixed light.Our eyes can block most of them except for blue light.

If you have to face digital screen,some measures have to be taken to protect eyes.

First,do not spend much time on smartphone or any other digital devices.Follow the 20-20-20 rule. Look away from your screen every 20 minutes for 20 seconds at a time and focus on a fixed point 20 feet away.

If you use computer,laptop,make sure position your screen 20-30 inches away from face, and make sure your eyes are level with the very top of your monitor. The key thing to remember is that you should be looking slightly down at your work. The center of the screen should be located between 15 and 20 degrees below horizontal eye level.

If you have to staring at screen everyday.A pair of blue light glasses is necessary.
