Ask HN: Tricks to Avoid Eye Problems?

As a software engineer, I have the need to stay many hours in front of a screen.

I work 8 hours a day in an office with a computer. At home I usually spend about 3 hours a day at the computer (social network, programming, side projects, HN, ...).

I usually have slightly red eyes. Lately the problem has gotten worse. I began to have some pains in the right eye and difficulty focusing on the computer screen.

Because of that, I'm currently at home on vacation. I have a scheduled appointment with a vision specialist next week.

This is the first time I have complications with vision. I'm 26 years old, so far I've never had any problems or need glasses.

Someone has some tips to avoid eye problems?
