@californiazebra I'm sure the idea of taking supplements does not thrill you, but my eye doctor put me on some that I think have helped. I'll list them, but again it may be of no interest to you. I DO have to drink a lot of water with them.
* Nordic ultimate Omega D3 minis
* Hydroeye
I also use an eye lid scrub ( which I know helps me) OCu SOFT Lid Scrub original. I use it in the shower and Oasis eye dropswhen I get out. I can get all of these on Amazon. Lastly, eye patches you warm in the microwave I use at night. The brand I like is Bruder...also Amazon. I'm sure you can 👀 how very dry my eyes really are. Oh, and I drink carrot juice. The end.
