Yes, it's called sleep, making it a cute thing to say "You have sleep in your eyes" rather than "You have some kind of snot in your eyes".

I like to say it in a devious, horny way.

Yes why isnt it called snot when the nose stuff is, hm?

I was wondering what the proper name for it is. It looks like the crispy gunk that forms around the lid of a bottle of maple syrup.

I call it "eye gunk". Milorad Pavic in The Dictionary of the Khazars calls it something really beautiful like "the dried up tears of yesterday's dreams".

"It looks like the crispy gunk that forms around the lid of a bottle of maple syrup."

That's what it IS. Where do you think maple syrup comes from??

I actually DO call it "eyesnot." I used to have a Newfoundland that got major eyesnots, policing of which was a constant chore.
