Not serious . I am sure you must be using your glasses regularly . Also if you don't have a antireflective coating on your glasses u can take one whenever you are using laptop for studying. Avoid direct exposure to air conditioner or fan . U can start using a lubricant eye drop .

Ma'am nothing to worry about as it's a common issue faced by anyone who is more into any kind of near work like laptops/ computers/ mobiles/reading books.
Few instructions:
1. Follow 20-20 rule. After every 20 minutes of any near work say laptops, mobile or reading take a break and focus for 20 seconds at a far away object at least 20 meters away.
2. Frequently blink your eyes while working, if not possible to remind yourself to blink then at least after 30 minutes of your work slowly close your eyes 10 times.
3. Adequate water intake at least 3-4 litres per day
4. Adequate sleep at least for 7-8 hours
5. Do not rub the eye
6. Use anti reflective coated glasses if you have spectacles
7. Cold compress to the eyes 3 times a day (Can dip clean cotton in refrigerator cold water and keep over closed eyes for 30 seconds)
Next Steps
Start with any lubricant Eyedrops like Eyedrops Flogel or Eyedrops Refresh Liquigel 1 drop 4 times a day for both eyes.
