@hector Dry eye syndrome can make it challenging for kids to perform well in school. Burning, itchy and irritated eyes, along with constant blinking, interfere with focusing in the classroom. Regular daily activities, such as reading, using a computer, and playing sports become extremely challenging. You should consult a doctor as she needs to be tested for diagnosis. You can also take action at home to alleviate dry eyes like protecting her eyes from dust, pollen by wearing sunglasses and Placing a warm compress on your kid’s eyelids gently every day (for about five minutes); this may increase natural tear production. Please consult a doctor as well.
