My dog seems just normal, but has that clear sort of eyelid covering at least 10 mins every couple hours. Is there anything to do about it? Does this require surgury like cherry eye or something?

It is not cherry eye. It should not be doing that if what you are describing is what I'm picturing. Have a vet take a peek. I'm more concerned if it is red or inflammed
You should take the dog to a vet. This could well be the first symptom of cherry eye (or nictitans gland prolapse), a common congenital defect where the gland of the third eyelid (or nictitating membrane) prolapses and becomes visible. It is easily rectified by minor surgery
