blearier
Fuzzier from exhaustion
Blearier is the comparative form of bleary, describing eyes or vision that are more dim, watery, or unfocused than something else.
Someone who stayed up all night will likely have blearier eyes than someone who slept well.
Each morning I wake up blearier than the last.
The word suggests fatigue, irritation, or the hazy state of having just woken up.
