class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Crusty eyes, commonly known as &#8220;eye boogers&#8221; or &#8220;sleep&#8221; in colloquial terms, are dried-up particles that accumulate in the corners of our eyes while we sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;They can vary in texture from soft and moist to hard and crusty, and they tend to cling to your eyelashes or form a thin film over your eyes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This phenomenon is common and usually harmless. However, it can be uncomfortable and unsightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what_causes_crusty_eyes_in_the_morning\"><\/span>What Causes Crusty Eyes in the Morning?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During the day, your constant eye blinking wipes away dust, old cells, extra mucus, and tears from your eyes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what happens at night when you are sleeping? Let\u2019s see what are the causes of crusty eyes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"natural_tear_production\"><\/span>Natural Tear Production<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the primary causes of crusty eyes is your body&#8217;s natural tear production. Research shows that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7169288\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">tears are a mixture of water, oils, mucus, and antibodies<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you&#8217;re asleep, your eyes produce fewer tears, allowing these components to combine and form crusty deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"allergies\"><\/span>Allergies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Allergens like dust, pollen, or pet dander can irritate your eyes. It may lead to increased tear production overnight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As these tears evaporate, they leave behind crusty residues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"eye_infections\"><\/span>Eye Infections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bacterial or viral infections, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/diseases\/pink-eye-conjunctivitis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">conjunctivitis<\/a> (pink eye), can result in excessive tearing and the formation of crusty discharge around the eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"dry_eyes\"><\/span>Dry Eyes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to what you might think, dry eyes can lead to crusty eyes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your eyes are dry, your body compensates by producing more tears, which can subsequently become crusty when they dry up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><strong>Doctor Recommendation: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/doctors\/lahore\/ophthalmologist\/dr-hassnain-muhammad-baksh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Hassnain Muhammad Baksh<\/a> is a qualified Ophthalmologist with 13 years of experience in the field.
