It may contribute: Eye strain can cause nausea in some people, but it is unlikely to cause reflux / acid symptoms. Taking frequent breaks, where you look away from the screen or periodically close your eyes, and varying the distance to the screen can help prevent eye strain. Avoid getting too close to the screen. You may need an eye exam to see if glasses are needed for long term close work.

Eye strain: Eye strain is not the cause of your stomach symptoms. See your doctor toevaluate your stomach symptoms.
