I had similar problems. Eye drops in my case didn't help, it mostly was caused due to producing to little tears at night when I sleep, I can't put eye drops in when I sleep. But there where some things which did help: - eating/drinking healthy, while unclear it seems my tear under production was partially linked to a unhealthy diet - eye hygiene helped a bit not much - Making sure air humidity is at a good level during winter times helped too. - And while it sounds ridiculous: Getting used to carefully open the eyes when waking up, like very very carefully. That probably helped better then all the other effects combined as most damage seems to have happened when opening the eyes when waking up.

The last one is indeed the golden one. When I feel that my eyes are sealed or I feel a lot of friction I use my fingers to help open my eyes. After that I put some eye drops in. What is very interesting that there is a certain set of actions that you can take and the ones that helped you, didn't help me (diet - I've been eating healthy for a long time, air humidity - we use air humidifier for a long time too), but the ones that were great for me (eye hygiene) didn't help you.

I can recommend medical grade silicone sleep masks (e.g. Eyeseals 4.0). These keep 100% humidity around your eyes over night, so that they can't dry out.
