    From a physiological point of view, the natural state of human eyelids is drooping, that is, when the human brain no longer controls the eyelid (eyelid) muscles, the human eyelids are drooping, that is, the human eyes are closed. When people sleep, the higher nerve centers of the brain are inhibited, so the muscles that control the eyelids must be inhibited and lose control of the eyelid muscles, so people sleep with their eyes closed.

    From the perspective of adaptation of organisms to the environment: organisms and the environment in which they live are adaptable, during sleep, people's defense of the external environment is limited, and for animals, the role of the eyes is incomparable, and closing the eyes can play a protective role in it. Moreover, the human eye needs to be moistened, otherwise the cornea will become blurred and even blind, and closing the eyes can keep it moist enough.

    Moreover, when a person is sleeping, the visual center is in a state of inhibition, so that even if the eyes are open and the object is imaged in the eye, the brain still cannot perceive it, which was the case before Zhang Fei was killed.

    From the point of view of biological evolution: terrestrial animals, from frogs to other reptiles, birds, and mammals, all have their eyes closed when they sleep! Of course, humans did not hesitate to inherit it.

    I think so:

    When you open your eyes, you need to contract your muscles to do this, and when you sleep, the muscles of your whole body are relaxed, and the muscles that control your eyelids are also relaxed.

    Some people sleep with their eyes half-open, because that's their relaxed state, maybe big eyeballs and small eyelids.

    And the fish, the fish sleeps with his eyes open, because that state is his relaxed state.

    What do you think?

    The eyes are closed because the upper and lower eyelids are closed. The innervated muscle is orbicularis oculi muscle. This muscle contracts when the eyelid closes. The nerves innervating this muscle are parasympathetic. The parasympathetic nervous system is in a state of excitement when the body is resting. Therefore, the eyes are closed when sleeping.

    Because when people are sleeping, the brain is equivalent to a computer, and when they sleep, people's brains are in a standby state, and all activities are stopped, except for the human body's memory bank, otherwise how can people dream! So, once the brain is in standby, any organ of the body stops to rest, and the muscles on the eyes also stop, so that the person will close his eyes when he sleeps.

    Keeping the eyes open can affect the person's sleep. Dry eyes don't make it easy to fall asleep, or if you look at something, your brain reacts. So it's not easy to fall asleep.

    When relaxed, all muscles are relaxed, including the eyelids. And the eyes need to be kept moist, and the tear glands will ensure that the normal activities of the eyes are not affected. But when people sleep, the tear glands are also in a resting state, and without rear supplies, the eyes have to be closed.

Sibler. Master] Note: Crocodiles are reptiles, not fish.

The answer to the question of why fish sleep with their eyes open is not absolute, because some cartilaginous fishes have an instantaneous fold equivalent to the eyelid that covers part or all of the eye, but most fish, such as carp, crucian carp, hairtail, and pomfret, do not have eyelids. Therefore, most fish do not close their eyes when they sleep, and a small number of fish sleep with their eyes closed. >>>More
