It seems to be allergic conjunctivitis associated with dryness.if you are a regular computer user then It could be computer vision syndrome. Please use some antiallergic eye drops e.g. olopatadine and lubricant eye drops e.g. teardrop 3to4 times daily and rub ocupol dx eye oint to be rubbed twice daily on lids. Do cold compresses.
