Redness in the left eye
Hello. I work in IT industry so the entire day I'm in front of my PC working. Recently my left eye started hurting a little and I see little redness and have burning sensation. Sometimes there is no burning sensation and the redness reduces, but it again worsens after evening. Please suggest what could be done. Thank you.

If you have been rubbing your eyes frequently and if itching is present, then it might be an allergic reaction. If there's just burning sensation that's present, it might be dry eyes caused due to excessive screen time.
Next Steps
Start using Refresh tears eye drop 4 times a day. Reduce the brightness of the laptop screen to a comfortable level. Follow 20-20 rule while working on laptop which means that after every 20 mins of screen time, take a break of 20 secs and focus on something kept at a faraway distance.
