Blinking the eyes is a physiological action, but when blinking frequently, it is considered an abnormal symptom. Moreover, some parents may notice that their children blink hard, so parents should take this situation seriously and promptly investigate the cause. So, what's going on with a child blinking hard?
Children who blink their eyes forcefully may feel uncomfortable, such as when suffering from acute or chronic conjunctivitis. And at this time, there may also be other symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, etc., which require going to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to avoid worsening the condition and causing greater damage to the eyes.
When a child has refractive errors, there may be blurriness in their vision, and they may instinctively blink their eyes forcefully, which requires correction. Moreover, the child's forceful blinking may also be caused by bad habits. For this situation, parents need to correct their children.
Nowadays, many children use electronic products such as mobile phones, tablets, etc. Due to the small screens of these electronic devices, it is easy to cause visual fatigue, which can lead to forceful blinking. Parents should limit the time their children spend using electronic devices, otherwise it will not only cause visual fatigue, but also damage their vision, leading to conditions such as myopia and astigmatism.
