  If you are using the laptop, I suggest you to add a separate key board and mouse. This can help you keep the screen farther away from your eyes. You said that your work requires you to see computer all day long, so I think you should take some breaks during the work time, this can relax your tired body and eyes, it will relieve your eye strain.

  I strongly suggest you to buy a pair of computer glasses, because you have to use computer all day long. During the sustained computer work, remember that don't lean forward too close to your computer screen because lean too close will stress your eyes. I suggest you to sit an arm length from the laptop. I also try to take my eyes out into the fresh air when I don't have much work to do. I think it is an ideal way to relieve eye strain.

  Eye strain is a common problem today. It can happen for a number of reasons. Some common causes are lack of sleep, staring at digital devices for long stretches of time, reading in low light for a long time without taking a break, allergies, incorrect vision prescription, exposure to bright light and some kind of eye problem.Though there are many over-the-counter eye drops and medicines that can offer help, there are also many natural ways to alleviate eye strain.To reduce eye strain, gently massage your eyelids daily. It will improve blood circulation to the eyes and also relax the muscles around your eyes. At the same time, it will stimulate the tear glands, which will help prevent dry eyes.Use your fingers to gently massage your eyelids and muscles above the eyebrows for about 10 to 20 seconds. Gently massage your lower eyelid against the lower bone for about 10 to 20 seconds. Massage the temple and upper cheek bones, also. Do this 1 or 2 times daily.
