I have the same. Takes daily maintenance. For dry mouth: brush 2X daily for gums and teeth; waterpik once a day; xylimelts or biotene.
Dry eyes: gently scrub eye lids in the morning; systane liquid tears; PM ointment at night; RX for pataday. I am finding that an eye mask at night helps keep moisture in.

Another one for Systane for the eyes and Biotene for dry mouth.
Frequent Hydration helps.

@marye2 Thank you! Good advice! I do pretty much the same,but I must me careful with anything with xylitol as it upset by digestive system! I found out the hard way. But, I’m also lactose intolerant. So it took a bit of research to figure out the xylitol issues. Warm wet washcloths or packs do help a lot. I suppose because it adds moisture.
