could be many things. allergies, problems with his eyes, nerves etc. any other symptoms with it? have you asked him if he is having problems seeing or if his eyes are itching???

I have ask him and sometimes he will say yes to the things i ask him then no. But i have notice the skin under his eyes are red you know like when people have dark circle but his are red i am going to take him to the eye doctor. And when he does the blink thing he rubs his eyes sometimes with it and when he does the blinking i notice it is always with the left eye it is almost like he does a wink so i don't know maybe he can not see out of that eye that good. thanks

Sounds like allergies to me. Please get him tested soon, especially before he starts school. My son is in first grade and suffers from allergies. He has terrible trouble concentrating, he always feels tired, and generally doesn't feel good. He has been on several allergy meds, but so far none has worked to solve the whole problem. Maybe if you get an early start, you will find out soonder what will help him. I hope he gets better soon. As far as the eye exam, you could still do it just to be sure.
