Answers:

Well there are a number of things that can cause dry eyes such as side effects from medications, hormones, allergies, blinking habits. I don't know what kind of tests they will do at the hospital but they may be able to diagnose the problem. The problem may be you are not blinking fully, or when you are sleeping your eyes aren't fully shut... its more common then you think.
"In addition to an imbalance in the tear-flow system of the eye, dry eye can be caused by the drying out of the tear film. This can be due to dry air created by air conditioning, heat, or other environmental conditions. Other conditions that may cause dry eyes are:

-The natural aging process, especially during menopause.
-Side effects of using certain medications such as antihistamines and birth control pills
-Diseases that affect the ability to make tears, such as Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis and collagen vascular diseases.
-Structural problems with the eyes that don't allow them to close properly or a problem with the tear ducts." I got that directly from this website. http://www.webmd.com/eye-health/eye-heal...

Depending on what is causing your dry eyes there are different treatments from meds to surgery. I think its best for the doctor to figure out why your eyes are dry then treatment options can be figured out.
