Question

Accepted Answer

If your daughter has been continuously flipping or rolling her eyes for the last 5 days, even though everything else seems fine, it’s important to watch closely. Eye-rolling or eye-flipping can sometimes be a harmless habit, but it can also indicate issues like eye strain, neurological concerns, or even subtle seizures.

What to do:

Keep a gentle eye on when and how often it happens—note if it occurs during certain activities or times. Ensure she’s getting enough rest and reduce screen time or any activities that might strain her eyes. Avoid scolding or drawing too much attention to the behavior as it may increase it if it’s habitual. Most importantly, consult a pediatrician or a pediatric neurologist to rule out any underlying causes, especially if the eye movements are frequent, sudden, or associated with other symptoms like changes in behavior, muscle twitching, or seizures.

Early evaluation will help give you peace of mind and appropriate care if needed.
