lasik dry eyes questions

I just had lasik done a few days ago, and i had never been aware of having dry eyes prior to surgery. Since the procedure, my eyes will spontaneously start burning, and when I put any kind of drops in, they burn also. The docs examined my eyes several days in a row and said my corneas are healing properly. Is what I'm experiencing considered dry eye? I am so petrified that this will become a permanent problem, and it would be unbearable. I figured it would be temporary since i'd never had a problem before surgery. What do you think? And how often should I use artificial tears, since I don't feel like my eyes are dry (but they obviously are). And my second question is has anyone ever tried thera tears nutrition capsules. Supposed to help w/ dry eyes b/c it has flaxseed oil and fish oil and vitamin E. I just bought it but wanted an opinion before trying it. Thank you.
