Staying hydrated
The best remedy would be to increase your intake of omega 3s in your diet in order for your body to have what it needs to produce the moisture to your eyes and using warm compresses especially at bedtime when the contacts are off over the eyelids 2 minutes at a time. Taking breaks from wearing your contacts will definitely help as well. Other things to do would be to run a humidifier to restore moisture in the air and take frequent breaks from looking at digital devices. If you need to supplement with any type of eyedrops try Refresh Contacts or Blink Contacts.
