Is sleeping with your eyes partially open cause for alarm??
Answers: nah, probably not. its called lagophthalmos :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagophthalm...
treatment is usually ointment to keep the cornea from drying out excessively, or taping your eyelids shut...
no some people sleep with there eyes wide open, some closed, some snore, some talk some walk, everyone sleeping habits are different, now if your sleeping habits change for no apparent reason then you have a cause for concern.
My daughter sleeps like that. It's a joke in our family that her eyes are so enormous that the lids don't close over them.
Anyway I was told that it's fine as long as her eyes are not uncomfortable or excessively dry. Otherwise there are eye creams/drops to remedy the problem.
normally when u sleep ,there is bells phenomena the eyes roll up to be protected ,,and avoid exposure keratitis ,,if they r partially open ,means u need assessment to exclude the causes,most common is thyroid disease,,,
