Watery eyes from Soha eye drop

Most respected opthalmologists here. I had been using Soha eye drops from year 2021 ,3-4 times a day, without any issue. However from last December onwards, my eyes started to water immensely post instilling Soha eye drops. Previously I used Systane ultra from 2014 - 2019. I was diagnosed with MGD in both eyes in 2023. This year i started lubimoist which gave temporary relief and eyes got back to watering state soon. Got my eyes tested. Everything's ok. Tried Systane hydration on Doctor's recommendation but eyes again get watery post instilling these.  Am contemplating using Soha Liquigel. Is it safe to instill Soha Liquigel BD or even TDS, lifelong? Which eye drop is particularly suitable for MGD? Can Eyemist drops/genteel gel help better? Warmest Regards, forever 🙏🏻

Increasing droopyness. Uneven eye.

I have always had uneven eye size. But in recent months, it has become more pronounced and noticeable. In some photos, my right eye look almost closed. And my pupil is half covered from both top and bottom eye in my smaller eye. It looks swollen. The eye lid is droopy and even the lower lash line heights are different in both eyes and the eye bag in my smaller eye seems to be bigger than the left eye . Kindly advice.

Burning eyes

Eyes tend to burn a lot. No redness, tears or any other symptoms. Just burning eyes.  Feeling of energy drain and sleepy eyes at times  after meals even if not eating more. Trying to sleep and closing eyes still feels burning eyes.  Blood sugar not yet checked.  Can it be hormonal or related to blood sugar or any other reason?  Screen exposure is less.

Dry eyes syndrome

I have dry eyes syndrome and my screen time each day is 11 to 12 hours including phone and laptop as i am a student and i have to watch long lectures . I have been prescribed two eyes drops by a doc in my locality - 1st is haloeye pg and 2nd is lotemox- pf , i have been told to use both the eyedrops simultaneously in a gap of 5 minutes 4 times a day for two weeks , earlier i have used advance lube eye drop for around two months there was no such problem but two days back after using the drop i found some irritation and itching in my tear gland and im not sure it was due to the drop or my dry eyes , i searched on google and found out that lotemox pf eye drop is for bacterial infection, redness and inflammation but i have non of these , should i use both of the drops prescribed together? I also get light sensitivity and sometimes i have to shrink my eyes to see some small text or bright thing and i already wear power spects , i also have restricted eyeball rotation inmy left eye by birth
