Good evening this 13th, Friday, of July.
I was here since this morning, occasionally doing my chores and watching television, that during lunch time, I suddenly have headache, at 5/10 pain scale.
I had my bath and still I have the headache. I therefore diagnosed myself as having the headache (right parietal area) due to eyestrain. With that in mind, I am now logging out of the site.
I will take a tablet of analgesic after our dinner. Then, I will sleep 30 minutes after our dinner. Hopefully by tomorrow, the headache and eyestrain will be gone.
What do you do if you have eye strain that is causing headache?

Eyestrain can get annoying. I avoid all light and technology when it happens. Thankfully it doesn't happen after because I give myself a lot of breaks from lights and screens.

that is so true. that is why my pair of eyeglasses is always worn by me because i cannot see things up close. i am far-sighted, that is why.

@JustBhem that is the safest paracetamol that even the pregnant women can take it. the paracetamol with codeine is from UK, given by my brother.

Recently I had my eye check up and doctor asked me whether I had head aches. I told I felt strain in eyes otherwise no headache. He surprised to know that I am not having headache.
You please give rest to your eyes by keeping off from computer and mobile phone.

@Sreekala thank you, but my eyes are not drying or watery. if i have red eyes like conjunctivitis, i may instill eye drops.

That's what happened to when I don't take a nap in the afternoon.
Or when there's just a bad day and I suddenly surf the net.

nap can make our eyes relax. i sometimes nod while watching TV, but it does not help me with the eyestrain.

i cannot take aspirin because it is an anticoagulant so i took paracetamol. i did not sleep right away when i went to bed. i had to check on the site through my phone, that is why i knew we got paid already.

I do experience that, too. Eye strain and headache from using the cell phone or laptop for long hours. Hope your headache will subside after you rest.

oh, that is good. placing cooled cucumber slices on your eyes can also reduce eye bags.
