Suggest Treatment For Chronic Dry Eyes

Hi, I have been experiencing dry, burning lips as of late. I believe I am well hydrated and was recently dx with chronic dry eyes for which I apply Refresh Advance eye drops four times daily. Is this an inflammatory event, auto immune disease??? Appreciate your advice. Thank you.
