How to reduce burning sensation of eye?

My eyes burn even after I sleep for long time.
And I feel like closing my eyes to reduce the burning sensation. As a result of this I am unable to work effectively. Can Anyone give me suggestions on what to do and what should i eat to reduce this .

IMO the 2 big causes of "burning" sensation in the eyes are:

1) dryness, as another poster suggested. use artificial tears like "systane" or the new "optive".

2) blepharitis, and inflammatory condition of the eyelids:
