Hi ! Firstly no age is too early for spectacle use . If you happen to have a refractive error u must use some kind of correction either spectacles or contact lenses . So I would recommend u get yourself evaluated for any refractive error . Also, since you have already mentioned that u have been overusing mobile . It is better to cut down on the number of hours . Take care .

Age is no bar for having a refractive error and need for spectacles. Get a spectacle power checkup done whenever safely possible next and if you get any then use regularly.
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 Eyedrops Refresh Liquigel 1 drop 4 times a day for both eyes.
