Why Do I Wake Up With Eye Boogers On The Corners Of My Eyes?

Hi im seventeen year old gurl and i have a question about my eyes i never really had any problem with them until now. Why do i wake up with eye boogers on the corners of my eyes near the caruncle? Then during the day i get more and sometimes they dry up so when i try to take it off it irritates and feels itchy. I also notice that my vision is a bit blurry and my eyes dry up faster.

boogers on nasal side may be pterigium. they are degenerative body growing from nasal end towards pupilary area. when it grows over pupil then it obstruct vision then it is to be rescected. if you are having feeling of dry eye then apply refresh teardrop 3times daily.
