Hi,
Even though your refractive error is low for the time being, you should definitely use the glasses to avoid increase in the error and your headache would also decrease if it is caused by the error. Also, you may need to wear anti-glare glasses if you spend more time in front of the laptop as this helps in reducing headaches related to prolonged screen exposure. Hope your query is clarified. Take care.
