A member asked:

Why are my eyes blurry after i wake up from a nap?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Randall Wong answered

Specializes in Ophthalmology

Don't Know: Could be dryness (not everyone closes his/her eyes completely). Do you sleep with contact lenses? If this persists, make sure to see your eye doctor.
