Sleepy Eyes

I work on a computer every day and for about 7.5 hours of each day.  I have recently had problems with falling asleep on the job.  I get enough rest and as long as I am away from the computer I am wide awake.  After about 15 to 20 minutes on the computer I am ready for bed.  I need to find some way of keeping awake while working on the computer.  Hope someone has some helpful ideas.
Thanks,
Mark

mark-
i do not believe this has much to do with your eyes to be honest.  sounds like u are just having trouble staying interested.  u could, if u wanted, try to place a drop of artificial tears in your eyes occasionally to "wake " u up. good luck.
