That sometimes happens to me, after doing 100+ hours/week, for some months straight :). The best solution is to get away of the computer, as much as possible.

Other things that can help:

- Have good ambient light. Don't look at monitors in the dark.

- Adjust the monitor backlight/bright to as low as possible, while it still looks good.

- Take short rests often. Every ~40 minutes, get away of the computer. Look at a distant point in the horizon for a couple of minutes.
