Question
Is blinking eyes a sign of nearsightedness in children?
Answer
There are various eye conditions that can cause blinking, such as various types of conjunctivitis, entropion, and visual fatigue. It may also be a manifestation of tic disorders, so if a child continues to blink especially if accompanied by actions like nose picking or pursing lips, it is recommended to seek consultation with a pediatrician or pediatric neurologist. We know that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can have a significant impact on children. If not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression can be rapid, posing great harm to children. Therefore, it is crucial to seek timely treatment at a professional hospital and undergo regular treatment.
