Suggest Treatment For Dry Eyes

I have dry eyes and have been taking doxycycline, restasis, lotemax ointment at night, and applying heat to my eyes 2 x day. Even if all of that I can hardly keep my eyes open as the day progresses. I squint like crazy and use artificial tears every 10 minutes. I am so frustrated and do not know what to do next. I have seen 2 eye specialists, both say be patient. Any advice or thoughts? I really need help.
