What Do Excessive Blinking Of Eyes By A Child Indicate?

My 8 year old son has been blinking his eyes excessively for the past 3 days. He says it doesn t bother him or cause him any discomfort. I thought it may have been from too much screen time, so I ve had him cut back, but he wakes up and starts very frequent blinking right away. Any suggestions? Is this something to worry about?

Hi,

No do not worry. Nothing is wrong he may be having dry eyes due to weather change. Just put tear drops for a week and he will be fine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ankit
