How can I stop scratching my eyes at night when im asleep?

Question

I am always rubing my eyes at night. And every morning when I wake up, my eyes hurt from rubbing them so much. How do I stop this habbit?

Answer 1

An eye mask might help, the kind that people use to get to sleep when there's too much light in the room. Gloves is another idea, but a lot of people have problems going to sleep in gloves.

Answer 2

Maybe if you were to wear a soft sleep mask, you would not irritate your eyes as much, but if rubbing is a habit it may not be enough.

If you do this just because its been a habit you have since you were young, you might want to wear a pair of mittens to bed and really concentrating on leaving your face alone while falling asleep.

I wouldn't pretend for a minute that it is gonna be an easy habit to break. You might even want to check into a hypnotist if these  simple things don't work.

Answer 3

wear gloves
