Why do my eyes burn/sting every afternoon or night

I have -5.00 left eye and -6.00 right eye.

So basically for the past year my eyes have been burning every afternoon, or night. It seems to occur around 12 hours after I wake up and wash my face or shower. I don’t get a burn if I wash my face in the afternoon before it happens. When it burns it really does burn, and very suddenly without warning, I have to rub my cloths on my eyes to make it go away. When the burning occurs I have to stop everything close my eyes and rub it. The only reason I’m asking for solutions is because I fear it’ll happen when I’m driving. I’m asking for solutions, please. Thank you!
