Tell your boyfriend he's the one needs his eyes open. I have never hear this before and besides if your not blind by now maybe just maybe he's wrong.

there's nothing to back that statement up and its probably a lot of rubbish that people believe for maybe a superstitious reason or something.

no it does not. there is no science to back up that statement. mainly sleeping with wet hair is just annoying since it makes your pillow all cold and wet. other than that, it wont make you blind

I guess it's one of those superstitions...it doesn't have a scientific basis. Anyway, I sometimes go to bed with wet hair when I'm too tired to dry it off first. And at times I get a headache after waking up but that's about it... :)

i always sleep after taking a bath but i think that it doesn't make you blind or whatsoever. but i think that if you always take a bath right after using the computer you'll hurt your eyes and will have a blurry vision. and if you're still doing it, then you'll be blind. i guess. happy earning and let's take care of our eyes!

Well I guess there is like 0.0000000000001% truth to this. If you sleep with wet hair you could get a cold, this lovers your immunedefence, and you are at higher risk of catching some virul or bacterial decease that affects the eyes. But if Blindness is your boyfriends concerne. He should not let you shower. You could trip in the shower hit your head and risk to go blind instently. Or using some using some wrong product in the shower like some haircoloring product or some chlorine based cleaner.
