Question
Why do children have monolid eyes when both parents have double eyelids? Is there a possibility for the child to develop into double eyelids as they grow?
Answer
A child’s eyelid characteristics may change as they age. Although both parents have double eyelids, it is not uncommon for a child to be born with monolid eyes. During growth, a child’s eyelids may sometimes show temporary changes, such as appearing more double after sleep. However, it is not certain whether these changes will persist into adulthood. If parents are dissatisfied with their child’s eye appearance, they can consider double eyelid surgery after the child becomes an adult. The most important thing at this stage is the child’s physical and mental health and overall growth and development. It is recommended to provide children with a rich diet in daily life, including eating more fruits. Wishing your child a healthy growth.
