Protect the natural reaction of the eyes.
Blinking and blinking are natural reactions to protect the eyes, ensuring that the cornea and conjunctiva remain moist. But if the blink frequency is unusually high, you should pay attention!
External ocular inflammation or allergic diseases
Children often blink, blinking may be external eye inflammation or allergic diseases, such as trachoma, conjunctivitis, etc., which makes children feel uncomfortable.
trichiasis
Trichiasis is also a common cause of blinking and strabismus in children. Some children have a tingling sensation when their eyelashes touch their eyeballs because of the thick subcutaneous fat of their eyelids.
Foreign bodies enter the eyes.
Foreign objects entering the eyes, or careless scratches when rubbing eyes, may cause children to blink and squint.
Watching TV and playing computer for too long.
Watching TV and playing computer for too long may also cause children to blink more because of visual excitement.
Parents' care and guidance
When you find that your child blinks frequently, ask your child if his eyes are uncomfortable, and then seek the help of an ophthalmologist. Treat according to the cause, and use eye drops to remove trichiasis or foreign body if necessary. At the same time, don't forget to limit the time for children to watch TV and play computer!
Patience guidance and education
Parents should not rush to reprimand the bad habit of blinking, but patient guidance and education are the key. Help children gradually overcome these bad habits and make their eyes healthier and brighter!
