F, 25, Philippines. My eyes easily tire from prolonged pc/fone use at work which causes headache in the middle of my brows up to the forehead, accompanied by dizziness and nausea. What can be causing this and what can I do? I wear anti-rad. glasses?

I have been having pain in left eye daily plus my eye is sensitive on light for the last 3 years. It is because they made me prescription glasses wrongly, it was connected with headaches, dizziness and blurred or vision. Can it be Anisocoria, please?
