Is It Safe To Use Cutis Eye Drops For Dry Eye?

I've recently moved into a single room apartment and have since been developing allergy like symptoms (sneezing, watery eyes). I've tried to clean my room as much as possible. So the allergy symptoms come and goes. But a few days ago, my eyes have started to sting a bit too. I noticed also, the past few days, upon waking up, I seem to have extra dry eye wax? Do I have an infection? I'm also kind of worried because the other day, a twig like/bug looking leg sort of flew into my right eye. But I managed to get it out and washed it with running water. So I don't think it might be the cause especially when both my eyes feel stingy. I've come to the conclusion that it might just be extra dry eyes, I do it in front of my computer for long hours. Not to mention, the room is air-conditioned all the time. The pharmacist gave me an eye drop called Cutis Eye Drop but since the instructions are in another language, I'm not sure whether to use it yet. So could it just be dry eyes? I don't know if it helps but I'm an asthmatic too so pollen/hay fever/change in seasons does affect me.
