tired eyes
Need for sleep
Tired eyes are eyes showing fatigue—heavy-lidded, strained, or reddened from lack of sleep, prolonged screen use, or emotional exhaustion.
The phrase describes both the physical sensation and the visible appearance: She rubbed her tired eyes after hours at the computer.
Tired eyes often signal that someone needs rest or has been through something draining.
