It feel like both of my eye's are straining, basically like a pulling feeling, even when I'm not focused on the computer screen. This feeling of strain especially hurts when I close my eyes. Headaches have almost daily as well. What do you think this is?

Do you already have any eye problems? Do you see an eye doctor regularly? I had the same symptoms, and I discovered that I was slightly nearsighted. Once I got contact lenses, the headaches and strained vision went away. Using a computer for a long time can be hard on your eyes too. My doctor told that whenever you are going to use a computer for a while, you should make sure you take little breaks, do some eye exercises, just get up and move around for a minute. He said it helps keep them relaxed. I would go to the eye doctor. This could be as simple as your eyes needing a little rest, or it could be a serious eye problem. It's best to get it checked out right away. I don't know why it would hurt when you close your eyes. My eyes usually feel better when I close them and they are tired. I think you should get it checked out.
