How to treat ADHD effectively

Patient's question:

Where can a 13-year-old with ADHD seek treatment? How can the treatment for pediatric ADHD be effective? Academic performance has always been poor, and I don't even know how to proceed with treatment.

Doctor's answer:

Reasons for frequent blinking in children:
1. Inflammatory stimulation: This is the most common cause, which may be caused by infections such as bacteria, viruses, and chlamydia, such as conjunctivitis, keratitis, etc.
2. Congenital eyelid inversion and trichiasis: Children may have congenital eyelid inversion (medically known as blepharitis), causing eyelashes to fall onto the surface of the eyeball, stimulating the cornea (the surface of the black eye) and leading to tearing.
3. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): Refers to sudden, involuntary contractions of parts of the body, such as blinking, frowning, or shrugging, along with changes in attention and hyperactive behavior.
4. Eye fatigue blinking.
