A member asked:
Is it possible that somebody's eyes are not blinking at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: The stimulus to blink the eyes is sent at the same time from the brain to both sets of eyelids, but if the signal is not carried the same, one eye may appear to blink alone or more sluggish than the other.
