Try putting drops in your eyes like visine for allergies. It happens to me once in awhile and it's very irritating (no pun intended) but the visine helps. It could be caused from dust, something else in the air, I don't know for sure but again eye drops help.

It could Be that either:\n\n1) your eye has excreted waste (greeney/yellow crsuty substance sometines kown as 'sleep') and has excreted too much therefore glueing your eye shut.\n\n2) Your eyes atre beginning to weep becuase you have hayfever, if so buy some Antihistemine tablets and take 2 a day and that should keep it at bay

While you are sleeping the natural tears in your eyes build up and clean your eyes to get rid of dust, dirt, and impurities. The excess collects in the corners of your eyes and drys up. That is what makes the crusty stuff, or "sleep" you find around your eyes in the morning.

Pink eye (conjunctivitis) is an inflammation or infection of the transparent membrane (conjunctiva) that lines your eyelid and part of your eyeball. The cause of pink eye is commonly a bacterial or viral infection, an allergic reaction or — in newborns — an incompletely opened tear duct.\n\nPink eye may make you feel as if you've got something in one or both of your eyes that you just can't remove. When you wake up in the morning, your eyes may seem to be pasted shut from the discharge coming from your eyes. The whites of your eyes may begin to have a pink discoloration, and you may not see as clearly as you did before.\n\nInflammation causes small blood vessels in the conjunctiva to become more prominent, resulting in a pink or red cast to the whites of your eyes. Pink eye and red eye are terms commonly used to refer to all types of conjunctivitis.\n\nThough the inflammation of pink eye makes it an irritating condition, it rarely affects your sight. If you suspect pink eye, you can take steps to ease your discomfort. But because pink eye can be contagious, it should be diagnosed and treated early. This is especially important for preschool-age children, who commonly develop both viral and bacterial conjunctivitis

It sounds wrong, but your eyes are dry.  For example, you can put water in your car engine, but it is definitely not going to work.  You need more than tears to properly lubricate your eyes, like oils and mucous.  I like to use Genteal Gel before I go to bed.  I have no watering at night or dryness in the morning. You can also try Refresh PM.

its all the dust and dirt that got into your eye before you went to sleep. \n\nthe tears in your eyes cleared it all out as you slept, and it ran off to the corner of your eye. \n\nits essentialy mucus and dirt, just like a nose booger.

just mix a little boric acid (found in drugstores) with some warm water in a cup and then flush your eye with it. it always works right away and soothes it. Also don't worry it doesn't burn.

Sounds like there is one of two different problems going on here:\n\nFirst, you could have a mild eyelid infection.  These infections will definitely cloud up your contacts and make your vision blurry.  They will also call the "sleep" that you are getting in the morning.  This "sleep" is cause by a mucous that is a result of the infection.  The mucous dries out overnight and you are left with eyelids stuck together.\n\nSecondly, and maybe more likely, you have a condition known as giant papillary conjunctivitis (also called GPC for short).  In this condition, the inside of your upper eyelids essentially become inflamed.  This inflammation interferes with the proper functioning of your contacts and causes the symptoms you are describing.  \n\nIn either case, eyedrops will help to alleviate the problem.  Also, in both cases you should stop wearing your contacts full time until you see an optometrist.  Definitely do not sleep in them right now.

it may be some sort of rash live hives or pitoriasis, psoriasis or rosacea, contact your doctor or a dermatologist, you can try taking an antihistamine over the counte like benadryl, but it will make you sleepy

This time of year simple allergies can cause it.  There are several products on the market for this.  I myself use "Allergans" liquid-gel tears.  The thicker fluid of this product stays with you longer and definitely is refreshing to your eyes.

If you sleep alone and have no pets nor do you have an insect infestation, you are scratching yourself in your sleep.  It's not really to uncommon, especially if you have dry skin.  Try putting a heavy cream (not lotion) on your arms before going to bed at night to hydrate your skin.  It might itch enough that you scratch yourself without waking up.\n\nI doubt that it's demons as some people say.  Those who think that tend to be a bit, ahem, worrisome.

Do your eyes itch?  Do you wake up with a lot of nose congestion and sand in your eyes?  Watery eyes?  Itchy throat?  Have to clear your throat a lot?  These are all signs of allergies.  Try antihistamines with decongestants.  If it just started to get bad recently it could be due to spring coming, it's my worst time of year for allergies.

Sounds like whatever was in your eye may have scratched it. I got a metal sliver in my eye at work once, and they had to "grind" it out. My eye was sore for a week!!

sounds like pink eye (conjunctivitis) just go to your pharmacy and get some boric acid add warm water to it and rinse your eye.  be sure to wear sun glasses this will help with the pain.  If this does not work, go to your doctor he will give you a stronger perscription but will also contain boric acid.

Do your eyes only get watery when you wake up?  You could be responding to dry air or it's possible that you have an allergy.  You may want to see your eye doctor to see what he/she recommends.  If it's an allergy, you may need some special eyedrops to help alleviate the symptoms.

Your eyes have been covered all night under your eyelids while asleep or you stayed up all night partying and studying.  If you are sleeping, then your eyes maybe allergic to something like pollen or pollution.  If you are staying up, your tear ducts are stopping and the eyes are not getting cleaned because of interruptions of your sleep patterns.  There are eye drops for dealing with allergies or dry eyes.  To be safe, consult a doctor.

It is probably hay fever. Get eye drops.  However, for quick relief, try putting and ice pack or cold pack on your eyes. It will relieve the discomfort a bit.
