U can increase the frequency of lubricants. Apply a lubricant ointment like genteal at bed time, this will reduce burning after waking up. SLK occurs due to rubbing of conjunctiva, bulbar and tarsal against each other. Lubricants will reduce the friction. U can add a mild steroid like loteprednol twice daily but don't continue it for more than ten days.
