I hope you could see my reply, Since kindergarten my grandmother noticed my eyes are blinking, so she always got mad at me, then when I was 27 years old I got my first eye glass and told the doctor about my excessive blinking eyes, he told me that it's a dry eyes and allergy, so I used an eye drops from that clinic, it lessen my eye blinking but I didn't buy that eye drop anymore, but my question is ever since before I see the doctor. I have this feeling that I can't breathe if I stop blinking excessively... Could it be because of anxiety? My family was so ignorant when it comes to this, and they don't believe even in depression so I can't ask them, they will just say that it's a mannerism of mine... Even my mother was once make fun of me because of my eye condition.

Thanks doc. Hopefully a lot of parents will get informed with this, coz my grandmother, my mother and all of My relatives are laughing because of my eyes...

I am actually a kid myself, and I noticed that I was blinking a lot and very hard, I think I have dry eyes because I spend all day on the computer because of online school so I don’t know how to fix this, what should I do?
Normally, the simple solution is to limit screen time. However, if online learning is unavoidable, then you can start by trying to blink more regularly and fully while on the computer rather than reflexively from dry eyes. Adjust screen brightness to preference and try to adjust screen so there are no glare spots (e.g. from window or overhead light) to further irritate your eyes. Outside of online learning, try to relax with activities that don’t require further staring of digital devices. It also may be a good idea to let your parents know about your struggle so they can arrange a visit with your optometrist to assess how to best help your situation. Hope you find your solution soon!
I feel uncomfortable and keep blinking. I decided to turn down my brightness, but I don't know if it works. I'm just gonna say eyes are one of my favourite body parts.

Uhm, I'm 20 years old and this also happens to me. I always blink a lot, like a lot. I am always using my phone and when I play computer games, I blink so much. I don't know what to do and it's just getting worse. I'm trying to blink like a normal blink rate (15-20 times per min) but I can't do it because it is involuntary. However, I do get some normal blinking rate after washing my face or after shower but then after a few minutes after that, it goes back to excessive blinking. I already told my parents that I have to go see an eye doctor. Any idea on what should I do and the possible cause of this? It will be highly appreciated. Thank you
It seems like you already know your excessive blinking is tied to overuse of screens because that’s when it’s the worst. We tend to forget to blink with screen viewing because of the over stimulation. If you are serious about getting better, cut your screen time to a minimum. Relax by doing things other than staring at screens (e.g. exercise, audiobooks, music, etc). Treat it like a detox! Keep your appointment with the eye doctor to see if more has to be done. 👍🏻

My 3 year-old son is blinking excessively just this January of 2021. We are thinking that it may be because of excessive using of digital devices that he has experiencing dry eyes. But when I see your vid that one of culprits of excessive blinking is inverted lashes, then I'm thinking that it may be the reason. My son was diagnosed with entropion or inverted lashes when he was 8 months old. We were given eye gel back then. We thought that his eyes are okay now since it has been years. Does entropion go away on its own?
Sounds like it’s time to take your little one for a comprehensive eye exam! Better not to assume or speculate. A simple check up will clear things right up 😉👍🏻
My baby is 2 years old.. he is blinking his eyes while looking in tv or mobile phone.. sometimes he rubs his eyes... Does he need spectacles in future... ?? I'm very much worried about this.... Please reply....
As mentioned in the video, if your child's excessive blinking is worse with staring activities (including TV and mobile phone use), then the excessive blinking is likely due to dry eyes. We tend to forget to blink when we are too focused on the screens. Take it as a signal to have your son take a break from screen viewing when that happens! Too much time spent on focusing at near is linked to the increase of nearsightedness in children. You can learn more about this topic in another video of mine: ua-cam.com/video/GhvmWWp760w/v-deo.html
i have had it since yesterday afternoon after i had an allergic with a dog including sneezing runny nose and runny eyes is it possible that i have it because of that?
As you may tell from this video, the treatment depends on the cause of the excessive blinking. A routine eye exam may be a good place to start the investigation. 👍🏻
If the reason is due to excessive screen time, then dry eyes is the likely problem (please refer to the first cause and recommendations discussed in this video). However, since you say this has gone on for a year, there could be something more going than simple dry eyes. That’s why a routine eye exam is required for proper diagnosis and treatment. Hope you get to the bottom of it soon!
Hopefully the video demonstrates that depending on the cause of the excessive blinking, different treatment is called for. One of the best ways to investigate the cause of excessive blinking is to visit the optometrist and rule-out ocular causes first. Hope this helps!
I blink a lot. Someone says me that this is only a habit. I also concerned to my dr. He says,this is due to dryness but after treatment i cant see any difference I'm confused what should i do😶
I would recommend returning to your eye doctor and reporting that your problem is persistent even with the prescribed treatment. He/she will try the next line of treatment until the dryness is resolved or managed.
tnx; my baby have 2 yrs old and dry eyes, can i give him hidrocil filac with in 1 hr interval through out the day b/c the opthalmic nurse have been suggested but i have question about the dosage
yewul mengistu Hi there! Unfortunately, I am unfamiliar with that product because it is outside of what we use in Canada. Since it is used for dry eyes and instructed for high frequency dosage, I would just make sure if it is preservative-free. This is to make sure it will be the most gentle product for the already irritated eyes.
yewul mengistu My suggestion is to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and watch for any allergic reaction. If there are any adverse symptoms, stop use immediately and consult your healthcare provider again. This is always a safe way to proceed 👍🏻
yewul mengistu For preserved artificial tears, maximum dose is 6x/day. For non-preserved tears, even hourly use can be prescribed. In either case, allergic response of redness or irritation to the eyes warrant further consultation with your eye doctor. Hope this helps!
My baby just started doing it since few weeks . Doctor said it normal but she said it could be eye allergy . Doc told me to put eye drops . Still same nothing change. Help me . I cry every day when i see her face . I could not handle it . Help me . Give me some idea where should i go now 😢😢
If the doctor who recommended the eye drops is an optometrist (i.e. eye doctor), then return to him/her reporting that the drops are not effective. This will help them troubleshoot the real problem. If you haven’t seen an optometrist yet, then bring your baby to one to assess the problem. Finding the cause is the first step 👍🏻
I saw pediatric eye specialist . I m sorry i m confuse little bit. I started giving her refresh preservative free eye drops . Today is her 4 th day with medicine.
For 15 years I didn't have this problem, it just suddenly happend few days ago, I can't stop blinking and my eyes feel dry with fuzzy vision, also sometimes I feel like I have something in the eye, how can I fix it?
Hello so I am 15 and I’ve always once and awhile had a horrible blinking problem like it’s almost a tic like at some point I’ll blink 15 times in a few seconds it’s really annoying like it will make me hold my breathe and I just don’t know it’s annoying
Man I started having blinking problems after working in an Amazon warehouse for 5 Months, I’m constantly blinking in the warehouse but it’s starting to affect me outside of work so hopefully when I quit I go back to normal, it could be the dust or stress
@@cognizantbow2275 update: i quit my warehouse job in July 2021 and my eyes have almost fully recovered, I still get the urge to wink my eyes sometimes but not nearly as much as I use to to, it was for sure the dust/fiberglass f*cking up eyes
It's about two days ago since my son keep doing excessive blinking + move his mouth ( idk how to explain). I search about it and many articles said it was tic syndrome. But i don't know what to do with him. What should i do?
what should I do to at least reduce him from doing that. I am a young mother who is very worried about this problem. Please answer if you read this doctor.
Like I said in this video, taking your son for a routine eye exam is all it takes to rule out the most common causes of excessive blinking. Only when all ocular causes are ruled-out would you move on to explore other possible causes with the family doctor. Investigate the problem one step at a time 👍🏻
@@mommydear thank you so much for answering my question. I've ask my son about it and he answer he don't know why. I'll go to family doctor if it still happen. God Bless u
@@sub_0292 hi, since the last time I sent this my son is getting better now. Sometimes he keeps blinking but not as much as before. I thank God about it
As mentioned in the video, dry eyes is by far the most common reason for excessive blinking in kids. If possible, cut out all screen time for the next few days and see if the excessive blinking goes away. If it doesn’t seem to make a difference, bring your child to see an optometrist for further assessment.
thanks for the info. my son has been blinking a lot for the past few days or so. There's no redness or swollen in his eyes or pain, but the blinking has me a bit concerned. Made his appointment tomorrow so I'll find out what's going on from his doctor.

@@pizzaliefde7156 my son is fine now it stopped. the doctor said it could have been tics or allergies. the drops i picked up from the pharmacy pretty much stopped his frequent blinking so I'm thinking it was just allergies. I would suggest taking your son in so they can see what's going on
My 2 1/2 year old started yesterday blinking hard and rolling her eyes unintentionally. What could cause this? I’ve been freaking out since noticing this
Same case with my daughter. 3 days ago i notice her hard blinking. I reduce the screen time In her tablet. She was also 2 years old. Hows your child?is she good already?
@@janinmagno8929 we reduced her screen time as well. Dr. Felt like it was more allergy related being that she would rub both eyes afterwards and she feels like the eye roll was her trying to lubricate her eyes she instructed me to give her childrens zyrtec once a day for a week it’s been a week and no improvement. I plan on calling again today. No other symptoms is normal with everything else. Dr wanted to rule out seizure and praise god nothing was related to that. Thx for asking and responding I’ve been super concerned. How’s your daughter?
@@shanice4269 i will observe her today if she will still blink hard. Every morning she doesn't do that. I hope that today she will not do that again. Btw thank you for replying and i hope for your daughter to be good soon. Btw i always tie her hair and i reduce the screen time in her tablet especially at night. And she improves fast. Hoping that it will not happen again.
@@shanice4269 Ask your DR about Facial Tics. I had both tics and also a caughting one. It was down to anxiety. Ask your DR if things haven't been sorted already. I got misdiagnosed for years before mine stopped.
@@i_GiveFRUITS hi can you plz tell me how are you now and what you did for the tics , my son started blinking tic can you plz reply me it will helps me a lot
If you are sure that you only blink frequently when you talk, then the blinking may not be due to an eye issue. Just to be certain though, I would still recommend an eye exam to rule out causes stemming from the eyes. If all looks normal, then it may be something to bring up to the family doctor for further assessment.
Kid or not, I would still start with an eye exam first 😉 It’s part of the process of investigation and elimination in finding the cause of the problem. If ocular causes are ruled out, then ask your family doctor for means of referral and further assessment.
My son started blinking his one eye after going to the beach. I tried rinsing the eye with saline but it still persists. Eye dr can’t see him for months…
It’s uncommon to have to wait for months to see an optometrist. If by “eye doctor” you mean ophthalmologist, I would go see an optometrist first. You should get an appointment sooner and they also have the means to check for the cause of the excessive blinking in your son’s eye.
Richelle, did you figure out what the cause was? My son has the exact same issue!!! Went to the beach and he complained of sand in his eye, then excessive/strong blinking in 1 eye began. Now it's both eyes, but most strongly in the same 1 eye it began with. We have an appointment with an ophthalmologist next week. We are pretty concerned 😔
I'm worried as my 8 year old has started hard blinking. Went to optometrist and said no problem. But he is still hard blinking with sometimes doing a little twitch. We have stopped his watching tablet to see but he still does it while he is just sitting there not doing anything. What should I now do
Depending on where you are from, it could be winter like it is in Canada now. These are the dryer months because we are cranking up the heat while we’re cooped up indoors. If you see dry skin on your body, you can assume there will be some effect on the eyes as well. Decreasing screen time is good; don’t let that go out of hands as it will only make the blinking worse regardless of the cause. You can consider having your child use artificial tears 2-3 times a day (as you would put lotion on your hands if they are dry). A humidifier in the child’s room or work desk could make a difference. If all these don’t help, return to the optometrist (or perhaps a different one) and seek further assistance.
@@harishachillal5410 hi. As soon as it came it went away. We didn't do anything different He does not do the hard blinking or the twitching now. Keep an eye on it. Hope your little one gets better
I have been doing it for months I’m 13 am I’m blink hard and when I do it a lot my eyes water as if I’m crying when I stay away from screens it helps it a bit but idk what to do
@@chriswoods6798 It's Anxiety which is causing you to have Eye Tics. I had them for 25 years and it mainly happend if i was out or feeling very nervous. Ask your doctor to check you for Anxiety because it helped me loads when i got Meds for it and when my Anxiety went i stopped twitching my eye(s) and also some times do Caughing Tics. I am happy to answer any questions
A good way to find out the cause of your excessive blinking is to have a full eye exam with an optometrist to rule-out possible ocular causes. If no ocular cause is found, then consult your family doctor for further testing and recommendations.
Another option is to Check your Anxiety levels! It can cause facial tics like winking and hard blinking (look them up on youtube, you will see what i mean). Tics can be cured by lowering your anxiety levels and will power! Hope this is of some help
It all starts with having a thorough checkup with the optometrist. Let your parents know how much your excessive blinking is bothering you and have them setup the optometrist appointment for you.
I hate it so much 😭 it hurts and my mom doesn’t understand she thinks I’m just not sleeping enough. Even if I showed her this vid she probably wouldn’t believe that doctors could help or anything.It’s been happening for 3 years ( I’m 14 now). It makes me so embarrassed cuz it hurts to suppress it and I look stupid Infront of everyone and made fun of by my teachers and classmates. Can someone help me learn how to stop it 😃🔫
Try to have a serious conversation with your parents about this. Now that you are 14, you are much more capable of communicating your struggles than younger kids. In fact, tell them exactly what you mentioned here. They may not realize it affects you this much. Start by asking for an eye exam 👍🏻
To help your sister, we first have to diagnose the cause of her excessive blinking (i.e. nervous tic or ocular cause). Rule out an ocular cause by having a comprehensive eye exam with your optometrist. If nothing is found, then ask your family doctor for further assessment and advice. One thing you can also try in the meantime is to point it out when your sister blinks excessively and ask if she realize why and how she feels as she does it. These observations will be important in helping the doctors diagnose her problem.
Thanks a lot for sharing this knowledge. My Son 7 yrs is blinking eyes frequently these days. I have yet to figure out the cause.

This is to make sure it will be the most gentle product for the already irritated eyes.
pls can u check it for me if u have an access cause am worried about it
yewul mengistu My suggestion is to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and watch for any allergic reaction. If there are any adverse symptoms, stop use immediately and consult your healthcare provider again. This is always a safe way to proceed 👍🏻
how often the max dose of any artifcial tears based on your experiance and is there side effect if it is overdose?
yewul mengistu For preserved artificial tears, maximum dose is 6x/day. For non-preserved tears, even hourly use can be prescribed. In either case, allergic response of redness or irritation to the eyes warrant further consultation with your eye doctor. Hope this helps!
Please ,my 6 years kid has a blink in his right eye only , no redness no other symptoms , is it just a tic ?
Did it resolve? My son has the same thing.
Any update?
I just blink a lot cuz they were tics lol. I'm 14 and I've had my blinking tics since I was 7 so a lot of blinking for me😅
Mam plz gave us some eyedrops which relax our eyes... I'm also kid. I'm also blinking too much eyes.
My baby just started doing it since few weeks . Doctor said it normal but she said it could be eye allergy . Doc told me to put eye drops . Still same nothing change. Help me . I cry every day when i see her face . I could not handle it . Help me . Give me some idea where should i go now 😢😢
If the doctor who recommended the eye drops is an optometrist (i.e. eye doctor), then return to him/her reporting that the drops are not effective. This will help them troubleshoot the real problem. If you haven’t seen an optometrist yet, then bring your baby to one to assess the problem. Finding the cause is the first step 👍🏻
I saw pediatric eye specialist . I m sorry i m confuse little bit. I started giving her refresh preservative free eye drops . Today is her 4 th day with medicine.
@@lindawan4115 I recommend letting the eye specialist know the eye drops aren’t working. This will help them decide what treatment to try next.
Ok sure . Thank u so much. I will let her know .
Can you please tell me the current state of your kid because my 3 yr old haveing same issue
For 15 years I didn't have this problem, it just suddenly happend few days ago, I can't stop blinking and my eyes feel dry with fuzzy vision, also sometimes I feel like I have something in the eye, how can I fix it?
Time to have it checked out with your optometrist!
@@mommydear I'm broke, can't go to doctor and now they getting red, don't know what to do
@@neros1277 lol
My 6 year old started blinking hard after having a headache last week. How can I tell if it’s a neurotic issue?
My son have same problem
Hello so I am 15 and I’ve always once and awhile had a horrible blinking problem like it’s almost a tic like at some point I’ll blink 15 times in a few seconds it’s really annoying like it will make me hold my breathe and I just don’t know it’s annoying
That is a Tic. You need to lower your Anxiety levels and keep telling yourself you can get through this.
Man I started having blinking problems after working in an Amazon warehouse for 5 Months, I’m constantly blinking in the warehouse but it’s starting to affect me outside of work so hopefully when I quit I go back to normal, it could be the dust or stress
Probably both
@@cognizantbow2275 update: i quit my warehouse job in July 2021 and my eyes have almost fully recovered, I still get the urge to wink my eyes sometimes but not nearly as much as I use to to, it was for sure the dust/fiberglass f*cking up eyes
It's about two days ago since my son keep doing excessive blinking + move his mouth ( idk how to explain). I search about it and many articles said it was tic syndrome. But i don't know what to do with him. What should i do?
what should I do to at least reduce him from doing that. I am a young mother who is very worried about this problem. Please answer if you read this doctor.
Like I said in this video, taking your son for a routine eye exam is all it takes to rule out the most common causes of excessive blinking. Only when all ocular causes are ruled-out would you move on to explore other possible causes with the family doctor. Investigate the problem one step at a time 👍🏻
@@mommydear thank you so much for answering my question. I've ask my son about it and he answer he don't know why. I'll go to family doctor if it still happen. God Bless u
@@fadhelamahdafika427 hey salam, how are you hope your okay, how is your son doing now?
@@sub_0292 hi, since the last time I sent this my son is getting better now. Sometimes he keeps blinking but not as much as before. I thank God about it
hiii mam plzz plz help us and rpl .my daughter is 2 year old and she started exesive blinking in 2 days while watchinga tv.what can i do.plz rpl mam
As mentioned in the video, dry eyes is by far the most common reason for excessive blinking in kids. If possible, cut out all screen time for the next few days and see if the excessive blinking goes away. If it doesn’t seem to make a difference, bring your child to see an optometrist for further assessment.
@@mommydear Thank you so much.
My son is 9 years old. He blinks his left eye very fastly.in sleeping also he blinks. What I have to do please suggest
How's your son now
thanks for the info. my son has been blinking a lot for the past few days or so. There's no redness or swollen in his eyes or pain, but the blinking has me a bit concerned. Made his appointment tomorrow so I'll find out what's going on from his doctor.
My daughter also. Now is he ok?
Is he OK
he's fine
@@shivanigangwar4565
@MrCrash-hz8xy
My son is 9 years old and he also recently started blink his eyes
And he says i cannot stop it
Could you please tell what the doctor said and is he okay or not?
@@pizzaliefde7156 my son is fine now it stopped. the doctor said it could have been tics or allergies. the drops i picked up from the pharmacy pretty much stopped his frequent blinking so I'm thinking it was just allergies. I would suggest taking your son in so they can see what's going on
My 2 1/2 year old started yesterday blinking hard and rolling her eyes unintentionally. What could cause this? I’ve been freaking out since noticing this
Same case with my daughter. 3 days ago i notice her hard blinking. I reduce the screen time In her tablet. She was also 2 years old. Hows your child?is she good already?
@@janinmagno8929 we reduced her screen time as well. Dr. Felt like it was more allergy related being that she would rub both eyes afterwards and she feels like the eye roll was her trying to lubricate her eyes she instructed me to give her childrens zyrtec once a day for a week it’s been a week and no improvement. I plan on calling again today. No other symptoms is normal with everything else. Dr wanted to rule out seizure and praise god nothing was related to that. Thx for asking and responding I’ve been super concerned. How’s your daughter?
@@shanice4269 i will observe her today if she will still blink hard. Every morning she doesn't do that. I hope that today she will not do that again. Btw thank you for replying and i hope for your daughter to be good soon. Btw i always tie her hair and i reduce the screen time in her tablet especially at night. And she improves fast. Hoping that it will not happen again.
@@shanice4269 Ask your DR about Facial Tics. I had both tics and also a caughting one. It was down to anxiety. Ask your DR if things haven't been sorted already. I got misdiagnosed for years before mine stopped.
@@i_GiveFRUITS hi can you plz tell me how are you now and what you did for the tics , my son started blinking tic can you plz reply me it will helps me a lot
I have it and does it making it worse while wearing glasses?
Wearing the right corrective glasses is not a factor that is known to make excessive blinking worse.
HI I I'm A CHILD AND I WANT TO STOP BLINKING WHILE TALKING I BLINK MANY TIMES WHEN I TALK PLZ MAKE A VIDEO ON EXERCISE OR A EYEDROP TO PREVENT IT
If you are sure that you only blink frequently when you talk, then the blinking may not be due to an eye issue. Just to be certain though, I would still recommend an eye exam to rule out causes stemming from the eyes. If all looks normal, then it may be something to bring up to the family doctor for further assessment.
Does carrots help?👀
WølfY Not particularly for excessive blinking...but carrots are good for general health 👍🏻😄
@@mommydear thank you!
@@Kyuno_. it just makes ur eyes healthier
@@R1IY2N Deku...? Also oof okay
I'm not a kid but I got a mannerisim of excessive blinking.. Help.. :(
Kid or not, I would still start with an eye exam first 😉 It’s part of the process of investigation and elimination in finding the cause of the problem. If ocular causes are ruled out, then ask your family doctor for means of referral and further assessment.
My son started blinking his one eye after going to the beach. I tried rinsing the eye with saline but it still persists. Eye dr can’t see him for months…
It’s uncommon to have to wait for months to see an optometrist. If by “eye doctor” you mean ophthalmologist, I would go see an optometrist first. You should get an appointment sooner and they also have the means to check for the cause of the excessive blinking in your son’s eye.
Richelle, did you figure out what the cause was? My son has the exact same issue!!! Went to the beach and he complained of sand in his eye, then excessive/strong blinking in 1 eye began. Now it's both eyes, but most strongly in the same 1 eye it began with. We have an appointment with an ophthalmologist next week. We are pretty concerned 😔
I'm worried as my 8 year old has started hard blinking. Went to optometrist and said no problem. But he is still hard blinking with sometimes doing a little twitch.
We have stopped his watching tablet to see but he still does it while he is just sitting there not doing anything. What should I now do
Depending on where you are from, it could be winter like it is in Canada now. These are the dryer months because we are cranking up the heat while we’re cooped up indoors. If you see dry skin on your body, you can assume there will be some effect on the eyes as well. Decreasing screen time is good; don’t let that go out of hands as it will only make the blinking worse regardless of the cause. You can consider having your child use artificial tears 2-3 times a day (as you would put lotion on your hands if they are dry). A humidifier in the child’s room or work desk could make a difference. If all these don’t help, return to the optometrist (or perhaps a different one) and seek further assistance.
Hi , how is your little one , is it stopped eyes blinking now ? I have 3 year old daughter she is doing same , can you please reply
@@harishachillal5410 hi. As soon as it came it went away. We didn't do anything different
He does not do the hard blinking or the twitching now. Keep an eye on it. Hope your little one gets better

And when I am playing basketball or volleyball in p.e like any sport that’s when I do it worst and also when I’m around people idk why any suggestions
@@chriswoods6798 It's Anxiety which is causing you to have Eye Tics. I had them for 25 years and it mainly happend if i was out or feeling very nervous. Ask your doctor to check you for Anxiety because it helped me loads when i got Meds for it and when my Anxiety went i stopped twitching my eye(s) and also some times do Caughing Tics.
I am happy to answer any questions
My son is 2 in December and blinks excessively I'm concerned about might take him drs
Hi, did it get better eventually?
@sophiemoran7015 yes he's 3 now he grew out of it I limited tv time and screen time in general that helped
Hi i have wink a lot in a day and i do not know why and my mom and dad has told me to stop but i can not it like a habits
Can you till me why
A good way to find out the cause of your excessive blinking is to have a full eye exam with an optometrist to rule-out possible ocular causes. If no ocular cause is found, then consult your family doctor for further testing and recommendations.
@@mommydear thanks i will till my mom and dad
Another option is to Check your Anxiety levels! It can cause facial tics like winking and hard blinking (look them up on youtube, you will see what i mean). Tics can be cured by lowering your anxiety levels and will power!
Hope this is of some help
My mom said it was an addiction
I got astigmatism im fine with that but the excessive blinking my god bro
updates?
When she was talking about blinking she was blinking
Im 12 and have glasses but i blink so much how can i stop it?
It all starts with having a thorough checkup with the optometrist. Let your parents know how much your excessive blinking is bothering you and have them setup the optometrist appointment for you.

@@wavetoearf i just stopped wearing my glasses for a week then it stopped. BUT it’s not always like this
@@Justjay224 do you still blink excessively tho?
@@wavetoearf no
I'm also a kid but idk why I blink alot
I hate it so much 😭 it hurts and my mom doesn’t understand she thinks I’m just not sleeping enough. Even if I showed her this vid she probably wouldn’t believe that doctors could help or anything.It’s been happening for 3 years ( I’m 14 now). It makes me so embarrassed cuz it hurts to suppress it and I look stupid Infront of everyone and made fun of by my teachers and classmates. Can someone help me learn how to stop it 😃🔫
Try to have a serious conversation with your parents about this. Now that you are 14, you are much more capable of communicating your struggles than younger kids. In fact, tell them exactly what you mentioned here. They may not realize it affects you this much. Start by asking for an eye exam 👍🏻
Don’t be ashamed. Talk to your parents and have her call dr and maybe a doctor can bring some sense to them.
@@vargasfam.3077 two doctors you need to call: an eye doctor for you, and you should also call doctor phil for your parents
Im just a kid and i blink excessive🥺😣
To find the reason for the excessive blinking, simply start with asking for an eye exam! Hope you find the cause and fix soon 👍🏻

Thank you
My sister blinks eyes like she looks up and then blink....pls suggest what to do!
To help your sister, we first have to diagnose the cause of her excessive blinking (i.e. nervous tic or ocular cause). Rule out an ocular cause by having a comprehensive eye exam with your optometrist. If nothing is found, then ask your family doctor for further assessment and advice.
One thing you can also try in the meantime is to point it out when your sister blinks excessively and ask if she realize why and how she feels as she does it. These observations will be important in helping the doctors diagnose her problem.
thank you
