Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question .

You can use Carboxymethycellulose in a gel form at night before sleeping . That lasts longer and will help you get relief. I would also advice you to find the root cause of the dryness by working with your ophthalmologist and look towards curing it .

Hope it helps . Regards
