MDS - Dry eyes?

Has anyone else experienced dry eyes with MDS?

I don't have an infection but over the time I've had MDS I have experienced increasingly dry eyes, especially during the night. This prevents me even opening my eyes at times when lying down. My GP has prescribed a gel which helps but I'm wondering if this is something that I just have to learn to live with. (The GP doesn't know much about MDS).
