This has been bothering me for quite sometime now, I have just reached the stage to become lucidly aware and control all of my actions. But every single time I become lucid one or both of my eyes is sealed shut, sometimes I am only able to see out of squinting eyes. Usually I panic trying to peel my eyes open as it makes it very hard to maneuver about my dream, though in my last few lucid dreams I have tried to ignore the problem wandering through my dreams half blind. It can be scary sometimes.
I have searched the web for anyone else having this problem with no luck, this is my first time posting and any help would be greatly appreciated as this happens very very often. Thank you for reading 
I’m not sure but it may have to do with the unusual amount of times I encounter sleep paralysis, sometimes happening twice a week. Info that may be important but I’m not sure.
I’ve had that happen as well! Weird isn’t it? Anyway, I decided to holler increase lucidity cause I figured I was lowly lucid, and it worked. I was able to fully open my eyes, and felt less “groggy” as well. I was able to look around me and everything was way clearer.
First of all
to the forums!
Now in answer to your question, lots of people have this people while trying to FILD. I have never actually tried, but people say that either saying “open my eyes” in the dream works, or physically ripping your eyelids off… 
What i try to do in this situation when im WILDing is i wait a couple minutes for the dream to stabilize, but since you said you were walking around with no vision this might not apply to you. As far as i know, SP isnt connected to fronzen/no vision in anyway. Btw i remembered 2 more ways to help your problem. 1, put on glasses, 2, take a pill that you magically pull out of your pocket that makes your eyes open. Hope this helped.
Awesome, glad to be on the forums.
And thank you for all of the advice I will try each method as soon as possible:)
Usually I use the WILD technique, but my dreams always start with me still in bed. A dreamscape never seems to form in front of me, my dream continues from where I left off in bed.
I’m not sure if this would actually work, because I havent tried it myself, but scine your dreams are pretty much controlled by what you expect, then instead of worrying about if when you dream you wont be able to see, just dont worry about it. if you expect not to encounter the problem, then you probaly wont encounter it.
Wow! That is some super lucid creative problem solving!
I can always see in my dreams, but this is a very lucid way of thinking for solving other problems in LD’s.
Modestmoose, don’t worry about this. It may be that you are anticipating this recurring event so therefore making it happen. forget about it, and the event will forget about you too 
btw,

Welcome to LD4all 
. Just to make you feel better, this was a problem that I used to have a lot as well. Over time I was able to find my own way out of it, and you will as well. The advice the others have given should be a good start for you. Just remember it’s all within your control, including how your eyes open and close.
As for the dreamscape forming, just get out of bed, walk out of your door and into your own dream world. Best of luck
If you haven’t tried, though it would seem like the first thing one would try, I would suggest rubbing the affected eye and blinking. Straining to open it may have the opposite effect from what you want. I suspect that these kinds of trouble, may have to do with the physical senses invading the dream causing all sorts of weird effects. The intermediate state, between dream and reality, when they are not completely separated, provide the oddest impressions I have ever experienced. And when body and dream act together, things can get annoying. Even if that is not the case for you, rubbing the eyes may provide the appropriate stimulation, to change your expectations. If it is though, the sensation of rubbing may draw focus away from the real world, and place it more firmly where it belongs.
