I've had drowsy-looking eyes for almost a few years now, and it's affecting the way people perceive me, especially at job interviews and in general social situations. In addition, I feel a significant amount of pain, and constantly feel the need to blink. I swear, on my worst days, people seem to believe I have Down's Syndrome.
This has been occurring for well over a few years now.
I generally thought this was a self-esteem issue, until I went to see my sleep specialist, who confirmed the medical pathological nature of it by stating my eyes were "hazy."
If it aids in the diagnosis, I am involved with a great deal of computer work (>50 hours per week) and I watch a lot of T.V.. I am currently pursuing a computer science major, so the heavy computer use isn't something I can cut down on.
Thanks in advance,
