It took a while to happen, but I am noticing that if I don't get enough rest, I develop dry eyes.
Nothing serious. However, there is a slight reduction in visual acuity that accompanies it. So far all my checkups have been great, so I'm not overly worried about it. I'm guessing that staying up quite late, staring at a computer screen, and dry heated indoor air are combining to annoy my eyes.
In particular, if I go outside on a cool day, the eyes water more and the visual acuity sharpens right up.
Finally, this may freak you out, but the other night, when I stayed up way too late working on the computer, my eyelid was stuck to my eye when I woke up. Heck, that freaked me out! When I first went to open my eye, it didn't open. When I forcefully blinked it open it there was some discomfort involved.
