Foreign body sensation burning is sign of dryness (computer Vision syndrome) because you don't know how to work on computer for long hours without giving any trouble to your eye. When working on computer number of blinking goes down from around 24per minute to around 8 minute causing severe dryness causing all these problems. One should try to have normal blinking while working on computer & should use lubricating eye drops 5-6 times regularly (Refresh liquigel),with regards

I am sorry but there is no permanent solution...Only precautions and lubricating eyedrop will help you
