Excessive Sleep In Eyes And Redness. Why Are They Shut With Mucus In Mornings?

the past two nights I have had an excess amount of sleep in my eyes, more in the right than left eye. My eyes are also red in the inner corners and veiny. I don t think it is pink eye because they aren t completely red and stuck shut with mucus in the mornings. Also, they aren t tearing a lot, but they do burn a little from time to time (especially the right eye). Is this possible allergies? even though I am not experiencing any other signs of allergies? or is it maybe some kind of infection I need to see an eye doctor for? Thanks.
