If you have tried drops I am curious as to what you have used... If you havent used these, try "Blink"... its a patient favorite and I love them as well...
The weather is a big part of why your eyes are feeling this way.. and as soon as the winter months are over, things should get better..
If you are a contact lens wearer, try switching your solutions... switching wont hurt your eyes... If possible call your Optometrist and ask to try different samples of solutions before you buy something different and dont like it.
If things are really bad there is one more thing an Opthalmologist can do for you... they are called punctal plugs.. They dont hurt at all and they only take a second to put in... What it is: If you have ever looked close enough at your eyes, in the corner you will see little black holes/dots/specks... they are on the inner corner of your lower eyelid... The doctor takes little silicone plugs and puts them in those holes.. What they do: They prevent water from draining in those holes and keeping the water in your eyes, keeping them nice and moist.
Try the first few ideas, and if all else fails... ask to see a doctor for the possibility of punctal plugs..
GOOD LUCK!!
Yes, you should see a doctor.
Are you sure you're drinking enough fluids?
Because dehydration can do that.
You could be suffering from a condition known as dry eyes and it be become serious. You should see a eye specialist and have him/her check your eyes. Eyes are not something to neglect. Good luck.
