Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is common to have such a sensation in eyes because of work stress and environmental pollution.
You should wash your eyes daily thrice a day with fresh and cold water.
Apply some rosewater dipped cotton swabs on eyes before going to bed
Take hydrating eye drops called as artificial tears and put them at least twice a day.
These eye drops are easily available in market.
I hope these points will help you and at the same time get your eye sight checked by an ophthalmologist.
Take care.
