  Define this disease should base on your body. Do you stay up all night? Are you a workaholic? Do you look at the computer or play telephone games all the day? Or maybe you get ill? As we know, one might feel uncomfortable after a long time's over-work or having no good rest. It does harm to eyes and you will feel very tired. We thought, when this phenomenon appears, on the one hand, you are likely to catch a cold and honestly suggest you go to clinic for doctor's advices. He will acts appropriately to your case. On the other hand, it is possible that your liver tends to be over-active, which leads your eyes to be burning. The liver plays an important role in eyes health. Eye burning naturally has a tightly relation to it. From all the above speculations, I suggest you pay attention to your living habit and take regular breaks and vacations so that your eyes also has the time to relieve eye strain and fatigue.
