Rest your eyes: The best treatment is to rest your eyes. Stop playing the video games if your eyes are hurting like that. It's possible that the eye muscles may be under tremendous stress and maybe getting "bulky". Hane them checked by an ophthalmologist ( an eye doctor) rather than your optometrist.
