Do you cover your eyes with something while sleeping?

Most of the time, I do. When I am into it, I use my hand to cover my eyes, seldom I use pillow or anything else. I think this habit develop from myself since I was in hostel 3 years ago. Almost everyday, my room mate sleep late so the lights turn on. To keep my eyes from the glare, I use my hand to cover my eyes. Now, even in dark, I still cover my eyes.

Well sometimes I cover my eyes and sometimes I don't it just really all depends on how I am feeling. At times if I am tired enough I can fall asleep anywhere. But if I have a real bad migraine then I cover my eyes with a damp washcloth or paper towel.

At times, yes, I do. Though normally it's with my comforter, one of my blankets, or something like that. It doesn't happen a lot, but it does happen.

I, too, need darkness or at least no light shining into my eyes to sleep. Should I try to take a nap during the day, I usually will pull the covers over my head. I have a mask that I use to shut out the light during the relaxation period at the end of the yoga class.

I don't have any problems with the lights around me.. I usually sleep with my face down so or facing a side where the light of the moon doesn't reflect, then I sleep without any problem.. Sometimes I need the moon light to sleep because sometimes I feel like something grabs me and pulls me off the bed and I need to see if something is there or not.. Of course, nothing is there and then I cannot sleep anymore, but I need to asure that I can see something if I suddenly wake up

I sometimes will cover my eyes when I'm sleeping especially when I wake up in the middle of the night with a migrain. That's when I go get my ice pack and put it over my eyes to try to get some relief.

Even I don't like the glare. so, I cover with my arm and sometimes I sleep face down.

I do that when I go to sleep and my PC is still on; I do that occasionally to listen to music. I find the light coming from the monitor to be quite harmful to my eyes, especially if it is dark. However I don't put my arm, I'd rather cover my eyes with a pillow, or some cloth.

Hi modstar no I do not cover my eye's. As I can fall asleep anywhere. The only time is if I have a head ache. So then I do with a cold wash cloth. Have a good night. Your friend onlydia

I only do that when the lights aren't turned off :D I can't get a deep sleep when the surrounding is too bright. I like it dim, but not totally dark so I still would rather turn off the lights and turn on the night light that cover my eyes to totally shut down everything. Thanks for the comment on my discussion!

I cover my eyes with my eyelids.LOL!I think you are talking about a little nap in your free time.Every body has his own posture to sleep with which they feel comfort to sleep.I dont have a steady posture like you,falling into sleep resting your hands on your eyes.I lay down straight first,turn left ,round,face down,face up...I will be turning around and around until I get into sleep.Cheers!

Hi..i use to cover my eye with some cloth while i sleep because that makes my eye to feel like in dark..because i use to on my night lamp that lights bit high thats why..it makes me feel better when i cover with some cloth..:)

when i sleep i sleep on a side usually to the right..if i can't sleep i go from side to side until i sleep but if i can't sleep after that then i cover my eyes with a pillow and then i finally sleep..

Yes, I cover my eyes with a pillow because I always leave the lights on. =)

I cover my eyes with a blanket that I sleep with...I have to have it to sleep. I won't even let my husband sleep with because I am so afraid of something happening to it. Every once in a while I put it over both of us and he loves it and says it is so easy to fall asleep with. I have a certain way that I wrap it around my arm and cover my eyes with it but only my eyes and forehead. My husband thinks hysterical, I just turned 37 and even my mom cannot believe I still sleep like that.

No, I do not sleep with my eyes covered. I cannot sleep with anything over my head or eyes.

I don't cover my face with anything. Excessive light and noise do not bother me at all when I need to sleep; I can even drink strong coffee just before bedtime and it doesn't cause me any insomnia.

I don't cover my eyes but I like to sleep without the pillow, it irritates me at night, and I also find it on the floor every morning. Well sweet dreams for this evenings.

I cannot cover my eyes with anything when I want to get some sleep. When I was younger, I bought a really cute eye mask that I intended to use for sleeping. I found that I could not stand to have it on. I thought it would be helpful, because I like to sleep in the dark, but I found that it had the opposite effect. I have also tried covering my eyes with a pillow, but I have found that it had the same effect as the eye mask. I guess I just don't like anything to hinder my sight.
