Hello,
Thanks for the follow-up information.
From the description that you have given, the most common cause for your problem are:
1) Allergic catarrh
2) Dry eye.
Both the conditions present with more or less similar complains.
As far as the treatment is concerned, you should use artificial tears eye drop. Mellose or refresh eye drops will also act good on you.
Wear eye glasses while you are driving and take adequate rest at night.
Avoid working on computer or staring at TV as it will strain your eyes.
Do not wash your inside of eyes , as it will increase the dryness.
Do get a eye check up to assess your visual acuity when ever you have time.
