My eyes are really drying up during the night, and
they are red in the morning. I was wondering if it is
safe to use Refresh PM sensitive (preservative-free)
oinment so soon after LASIK (2 weeks) ?

Please discuss this with your own doctor. My apologies - but we can not give out actual treatment advice.
In general - there are many treatments for dry eye. Lubcricating drops, gels and ointments are effective. You can also speak with your doctor about punctal plugs, which raise the tear film.

Best regards
