#1.  No.
#2.  There is something severely wrong if you are using eyedrops 50 times a day.  Please see an Eye MD (find one at www.aao.org).

No.  Lack of sleep alone will not cause blindness; neither will lots of eyedrops.  But severe emotional problems can affect the way you see.

If you have not visited an eye doctor recently, I would recommend one--and that you tell him/her you are under a lot of stress.
