I should but I don't. I need to find a good one. I do use warm compresses once a day for 4 minutes.

I have used Systane Nighttime Eye Gel (or GenTeal Severe Dry Eye Gel) every night at bedtime for over 20 years. About 4 years ago I found I needed to apply again during the night. I apply that dose whenever I wake to use the bathroom. Doing this ensures my eyes are comfortable when I get up in the morning. I also cleanse my eyelids with Ocusoft Foam Lid Scrub every morning upon arising. This was recommended to me by my Optometrist. I also use Xiidra drops twice a day (Restasis did nothing for me.)
As I’ve aged (I’m 77) my dry symptoms have gradually increased. I’m planning on talking with my optometrist at my upcoming appointment about adding Meibo.
