blinking works like a defense mechanism of our bodies to protect our eyes. Blinking mosturizes our eyes and in a way cleans the eye's surface from protein build-up.

It is an essential function of the eye that helps spread tears across, and remove irritants from, the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva. Each blink typically takes between 100 and 150 milliseconds from start to finish
