Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Mostly you have dry eyes which can happen when we use mobile or laptop because then we don't blink that much . Use some good lubricants like refresh tears or systane uktra four times a day and you would be fine . While using laptop or mobile look at a distance after every 20 minutes and blink frequently.

Hope I have answered your query.
