Patient's question:
My child is six years old. He has had a cold once, but after recovering, he often exhibits blinking symptoms before and after the cold. What should be noted?Doctor's answer:
Because colds can cause dry eyes, children will unconsciously blink, producing more tears to moisturize their eyes. It is recommended to give children appropriate eye drops and add carrots and animal liver to their diet to improve the situation quickly. Children face learning pressure or emotional stress every day. Eye exams show no abnormalities. The flickering caused by the above reasons can be treated. Trichiasis can be corrected through surgery. Viral keratitis can be treated with medication. Blinking caused by TV program stimuli should be prohibited from watching TV. Blinking caused by mental stress can help children relieve psychological pressure.
