Alcohol consumption mainly impacts vision. It causes blurring of vision, and in the case of excessive drinking one may not be able to see at all. Alcohol also messes up one's sleeping patterns. While alcohol does induce early sleep; it is not sleep of a good and beneficial quality. In fact alcohol induced sleep does not really relax your mind and body the way that normal sleep does, and in fact leads to fatigue and irritability.

Excessive alcohol consumption can severely damage one's kidneys. Kidneys regulate bodily fluids and the supply of minerals to the body. Any disruption in this function will lead to drastic reduction in energy levels.
