A document holder beside your monitor can help ensure the documents are positioned so you don't need to move your head to look from the document to the screen.
Eye strain is often caused by excessively bright light either from outdoor sunlight coming in through a window or from harsh interior lighting. Use blinds or drapes on windows and replace the light bulbs in desk lamps with bulbs of lower wattage.
If there is no way to minimize glare from light sources, consider using a screen glare filter. These filters decrease the amount of light reflected from the screen.
Make use of the 20-20-20 rule: take a break once every 20 minutes and focus on something at least 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This can alleviate eyestrain and work the eye muscles that are not being used while watching a digital screen.
