This happened AGAIN, really annoyingly last night. I DEILDed into a lucid dream like I usually do, and I was very lucid and conscious of being in a dream. But I could barely open my eyes, and when I did, they kept closing. It felt like I was so crushingly tired that I couldn't keep my eyes open. I tried imagining them opening with all my concentration -- nothing. I tried to ignore it and feel around my surroundings in the meantime -- no change. I tried physically holding them open -- I still could barely see past them. My lucid dreams are very realistic and conscious; that is, when I look around my room it looks like my room, when I talk to someone I know in real life they look normal, and when I run my hand over things it feels exactly like it should. But I simply cannot get over this barrier right now, and I don't know how I can. I know acknowledging it probably makes it worse, but what more can I do?
Edit: I've noticed that I really only get the eye problem when I first wake (that is, start dreaming) in my bedroom. My DEILDs always deposit me right back in my bed. So far I've never tried to leave my room--I wander around it or make people appear, but that's about it. The dreams naturally change around me, occasionally with a ->waking->transition->dream in between. Those dreams are always in strange buildings or places I've never been before, and I never have the eye issue. So, first dream in my room = can't open my eyes. What do I do?
