Well, it is quite possible that you are not wearing protective glasses properly at work and UV light from the welding arc is causing superficial corneal injury that heals over night! Use lubricating drops and keep the safety glasses on while working. Arc light from side can also cause minor damage to cornea.

Complete evaluation at the clinic is desirable
