Why do i have blurred vision for a long period of time after i wake up?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Dryness: The most common reason for morning blur is eye dryness. The tear flow drops at night and the action of the lids is minimized until you wake up. You might try putting a lubricating eyedrop into your eye just before going to sleep like systane or refresh which can help minimize this time of blur in the morning.

Possible causes: Common causes for your symptoms include blepharitis and lagophthalmos/dry eye. Blepharitis is an inflammation of the rims of the eyelids that can be treated with rx eyedrops and home lid hygiene, and lagophthalmos is when a person doesn't close their eyes all the way when they sleep, leaving a sliver of eye to dry out overnight. This is treated with eye lubricants. See your eye md to find out.
