Question

Why do children’s eyelids blink frequently?

Answer

According to the description, if a child’s eyes always tear and they cry frequently soon after birth, this condition may be caused by a calcium deficiency. The methods to supplement calcium include taking calcium supplements and through dietary intake. The most commonly used calcium-rich foods are dairy products, which not only contain abundant calcium but are also easy to absorb. Other foods high in calcium include oysters, seaweed, cabbage, broccoli, turnips, carrots, kale, and bok choy. Since there are many factors that can lead to pediatric eye diseases, it is necessary to understand the cause before treatment and implement symptomatic treatment. At the same time, protective measures for the eyes in daily life are also very important. It is recommended to eat fewer spicy foods and more eye-protective foods.
