In daily life, many people rub their eyes when they are tired, but some mothers also frequently rub their eyes when they find that their children are not sleepy. In severe cases, they may even rub their eyes with red blood streaks, which makes mothers puzzled. So, what's wrong with a two-year-old child always rubbing their eyes?
Children often rub their eyes, which is likely caused by inverted eyelashes. This is because the nasal bridge bone of the child is not fully developed, and the eyelid fat and eyelids are relatively thick, which can easily cause the eyelashes to curl inward, leading to inverted eyelashes. Some children are caused by infection factors, and it is necessary to observe whether the conjunctiva is red and whether there is an increase in secretions. If these symptoms occur, timely treatment should be sought.
If a child rubs their eyes due to eye fatigue, the mother can give them some eye drops and let them do some eye exercises. If the child's eyes often turn red, it may be due to internal heat. The mother can encourage the child to drink more water and take some antipyretic drugs if necessary. If the child habitually rubs their eyes, it is important to ensure that they wash their hands frequently to avoid bacterial infections.
Do not let children stay in areas with particularly dim light for a long time. If the light is too weak, it may cause blurry vision and damage to their eyesight. It is necessary to prohibit children from early contact with electronic products such as mobile phones, computers, and televisions, and to avoid eye injuries. If children have eye injuries, it will have a significant impact on eye development.
