Usually when someone wakes up, they open their eyes. Not a good thing if you're Scott Summers.

So does he wear something to prevent his optic rays bursting out of his eyeballs when he wakes up?

I would assume his visor or glasses may be uncomfortable to sleep with.

    Maybe he has a ruby-lined sleep mask. – aethercowboy Aug 15 '17 at 19:47

    I would bet money that he wears some sort of eye-wear. i feel like X-Men Origins: Wolverine might have had a scene of it, but I'm not rewatching it to find out... – Allball103 Aug 15 '17 at 19:55

  • He just has a bit of shut-eye – Reuben Mallaby Aug 16 '17 at 8:49

It looks like he keeps his mask on. Since the mask requires him to either touch the mask or use the hand switch, he's probably safe.

Astonishing X-Men #2 - Cyclops and Emma Frost sleeping

Just to cover all bases, there was a time between All-New X-Men #3 and Uncanny X-Men v.3 #22 when Cyclops had lost control of his powers such that the visor would not contain them, only his eyelids. I don't know how he slept at that time.

    This takes "protection" to a whole new level. – void_ptr Aug 15 '17 at 20:22
  • Fun fact: Everyone who sleeps with their glasses on looks that good – DCOPTimDowd Aug 16 '17 at 18:27
