Blurred vision at night

[Lonelydaisy]

Over the last 2 weeks I've woken up about 4 or 5 nights with blurred vision in the middle of the night.
I always shoot up from bed as if I've had a bad dream and my vision is really blurry. It only lasts about 20 seconds until I rub my eyes and it slowly goes away.
This is will happen whenever I wake up throughout the night maybe 2 or 3 times.
I have no blurred vision in the day though and had a recent eye test in July.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

Do you want night face cream? It ‘creeps’ across your skin and can end up places you didn’t put it!

Could be that getting into your eyes blurring your vision? If it’s a quality product it won’t hurt or stung, just make a film on your eye.

Don’t wear face cream at night for a couple of nights and see if it stops the problem.

Nope no face cream.

Do you suffer from migraines?

I would call your optician

I suffer with dry eyes and get similar.

If you scrunch up your eyes really tightly does it have a similar effect? Could you be scrunching your eyes for long periods of time while asleep as you’re stressed? Many clamp their jaw or grind their teeth. Perhaps you clench up your eyes?

I'm probably not going to explain this right but are you sure it's in both eyes or just one?
I have this occasionally but it's just one eye that won't focus for a bit when I wake up in the night.
I read that this can be caused when you sleep in your side and one eye is buried in the pillow so that pupil is fully dilated and the other eye is picking up some ambient light from the room even though it's dark so the pupils are not equally dilated - because it's not normally completely pitch black in the bedroom iyswim.
When you wake up and open your eyes your vision will be blurred as it takes a few seconds for both pupils to adjust to the same dilation.
This is all just my ramblings and obviously not a substitute for a check up with your optician op if you are worried.
