Why is my toddler only closing one eye?

hi just wondering anyone kids went through this, my 2 year old son keeps closing the left eye. i’m concerned he needs glasses or something. i took him to his doctor 5 month ago about this they checked his eyes it was fine now he’s doing it again and more often

Sounds like a twitch. Is he overly nervous or under any type of stress ? My son had the same and it turned out to be a reaction to his mother and I getting a divorce.

Go to an optometrist not gp

Take him to an eye doctor. It could also be an over tired reaction or stress. Is it a twitch, or he fully closes it to look at something??

My brother did this when he was really young. Needed glasses and an eye patch to strengthen his weak eye. Get it early it’s easier to treat. Definitely see an optimitrist

U need to see a pediatric eye specialist , can’t trust a pediatrician , they can’t dilate the eyes there
