I have an eye strain and dry eyes. and i'm worried because my eye strain or the red lines in my eyes are not going away. is it because i keep on using my phone? what should i do to make them go away and make my eyes bright again?

I think you have made an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your eye symptoms and the cure should be obvious. Too much staring at a computer or smart phone markedly reduces eye blinking leading to very dry and irritated eyes. Reduce your time on your smart phone and eye symptoms should resolve.
