Would it be inconvenient to travel to the airport a day ahead and personally speak with a TSA supervisor in advance? Show the eye drops, explain the necessity, and write down his/her name prior to travel for later reference (make sure it's at the same terminal).
Eye drops should be permitted under the current guidelines. However, even within my own terminal, we have inconsistencies between shifts. I've already had a couple of run-ins with my counterparts from different shifts that overlap with mine.
Not a good answer, I know, but it's the best I can offer.
I will try to get a letter of explanation, but as far as going out to DFW to get an opinion of a supervisor; not easy or logical to try to do so.
Thanks for trying.
