I've had the weird thing where I suddenly lose sight in my dream. Like sticking your head in water and trying to see underwater. The dream went on.

This was a semi regular occurrence that added to the dread of the situation.

Only later my girlfriend told me that sometimes I would open my eyes when asleep, which freaked her out. Only a while later I managed to connect the dots. I was trying to see in my sleep and opened my eyes irl, causing me to lose vision in my dreams and seeing a weird blurry unrelated thing instead.
