Having Dry Eyes. Suffering From Blepharitis. Using Celluvisc. Further Medications?

Hello Dr, I have blepharitis so I have been told. Since 2007 have suffered with very dry eyes some days worse than some. At night when I wake up the eyes are dry. I use Celluvisc, Are they any vitamins such as Biotin or Selenium or anything else you can recommend to help. I have had tests for autoimmune disease but they have all been negative. Some days my eyes feel really heavy and sore. I have never had any tear film tests carried out.
