Hello,
The symptoms correlate to a severe case of dry eye. Does your profession involve staring at screens a lot? If yes, that do reduce the hours or blink frequently in between. But I would recommend a visit to an ophthalmologist as it might also be an eye infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
