In short dolphins do not blink as we do - in the act of cleaning and preventing our eyes from drying out but they do have the ability to change the shape of their eye.

No yes no yes IDK As quoted from: http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/1999-02/917649489.Zo.r.html "Yes. Dolphins do have eyelids. Their eyes also secrete a slippery substance that helps protect them from foreign substances and friction of the water. A dolphin's eyes function independently of one another, meaning that each one doesn't always have to be looking in the same direction as the other, like human eyes do."

Yes. Whales, like all mammals, have eyelids. Although they generally do not need to blink as often as land animals, they are still capable of opening and closing their eyes.
