Alright, so I've had a couple lucid dreams, mind you they never last more than 15 seconds, where one of my dream eyes will be glued shut, and I can't open it.

Example 1: I woke up lucid in my dream bed, sat up in my dream bed, but one of my dream eyes were closed.

Example 2: I suddenly am lucid in my dream dorm, sitting on a couch, with my left dream eye closed. I try to open it, but it won't open. I rub my hands thinking that will help, but it doesn't.

Note for Example 2: Somewhere I read that if you shut one eye in real life, and look at your nose, you will see it, but in your dreams you won't. Last night (Example 2) I was clearly able to see my nose in my dream, because one of my eyes were shut. I'm assuming that this reality check is not very reliable.

Thanks for all the help / tips for opening dream eyes
