    Your problem may be caused by the lots of use of eyes in front of the computers for a long time with no rest. Then your eyes may feel dry and get infection. Or your situation may be caused by the bad environment in which lots of dust or sand comes into your eyes to let them get infection. You could use some eye drops to release the symptom. Or else, you could go to the hospital to have a check.
