Headache, Eye Pain When Working At Computer. Have Power. Should I Wear Spectacles?

I have -0.5 in right eye and -0.25 in left eye. Doctor advised me to wear glasses continuously for 6 months. I am a Computer Science student and forced to see computer atleast 8 hours a day. I get headache and eye pain at times, when reading or working on computer. Should I wear spectacles ? Would I made to wear spectacles lifelong ? Will the power reduce or maintain if I don't wear spectacles and have a healthy diet ? Or should I have a healthy diet along with wearing spectacles ?

Hi,
You have to wear glass continuously during day time and while working on computer to control your number, otherwise it will go increasing.
Give rest to your eyes in between for some time while working on computer for long time.
See that light is coming on computer from back.
Do not work on computer if light is dim or proper.
You have to wear glasses through out your life.
Take high protein diet, fresh green veggies and fresh fruits.
Take vitamin A, E and other multivitamin supplements.
Ok and take care.
