Babies always rub their eyes, which is commonly caused by inverted eyelashes, conjunctivitis, low vision, foreign bodies entering the eye, visual fatigue, etc.
1. Inverted eyelashes: Because the eyelashes may rub against the surface of the eyeballs, babies will always rub their eyes because of the sensation of foreign objects.
2. Conjunctivitis: Bacterial conjunctivitis and allergic conjunctivitis are common in clinical practice. Bacterial conjunctivitis will cause the baby’s eyes to have a foreign body sensation, tearing, increased secretion and other uncomfortable symptoms, always rubbing the eyes with their hands. Allergic conjunctivitis will cause the baby’s eyes to appear more obvious itching and other discomforts, always rubbing the eyes with the hand.
3. Low vision: because of refractive error or congenital cataracts and other eye diseases, the baby’s vision will be low, because the eyes can not see, always rubbing the eyes.
4. Foreign objects entering the eye: foreign objects entering the baby’s eye will rub the surface of the eyeball, resulting in an obvious foreign body sensation and always rubbing the eye with the hand.
5. Visual fatigue: due to prolonged viewing of electronic products, etc., resulting in visual fatigue, always rubbing the eyes with the hands.
Specific causes need to bring the baby to the doctor to check clearly.
