Am software engineer, who suffer from a hyperthyroid, my eyes burn a lot after working for 4 or 6 hrs. Does this happen because of long exposing of my eyes to a laptop or because of hyperthyroid?

You are having dryness due to overuse of smartphone ,computer etc,so try to have normal blinking while working on computer & use lubricating eye drops 4-5 times a day (Refresh liquigel),with regards Dr Arjun kr Singh Patna.
