Answers:
It's possible the refresh rate on your monitor is not set correctly and is flickering just enough to cause eye strain. Right click on your desk top and then click properties on Windows XP or personalize on Vista. Go to the display settings, advanced settiings, monitor and check the screen refresh rate. If there are more than one setting try a different one and see if that helps.Health Question & Answer

you might need glasses for reading and computer use, i have a pair of really weak ones and they really don't look that bad, plus you only have to wear them for reading so it isn't like you'd have them on all the time, ask your parents to take you for a check up.
EDIT: oh yea, forgot about refresh rate, follow olies advice, take a 30 min break (or as long as possible) and the if you still have problems get your eyes checked
