What should I do if a three-year-old baby keeps blinking1

  Firstly, if you want to treat the condition of babies blinking their eyes, you still need to understand the reasons why they always blink. The reasons why babies always blink are as follows.

  Firstly, there may be refractive errors, which in layman's terms may indicate myopia. This is mainly because normal people tend to blink their eyes involuntarily when they cannot see clearly, so babies may also have this condition. If this is the reason, it is recommended to take the baby to the ophthalmology department for myopia examination first.

  Secondly, there is dry eye syndrome. Although three-year-old babies are not very old, nowadays children often have the habit of looking at their phones or electronic screens, which can also cause their eyes to be very dry, leading to dry eye syndrome. If the situation is found to be like this, children can be given some preservative free eye drops or similar products.

  Thirdly, if there is allergic conjunctivitis, generally speaking, the eyes will be itchy, and the baby does not know how to control it, so it is very likely that they will frequently blink their eyes or touch their eyes with their hands.

  If you find that your baby frequently blinks and there is no improvement, it is recommended to go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for relevant examinations.
