The eye is designed to be self cleaning and it protects itself with blinking. The motion lubricates the eye with moisture provided by the tear duct and keeps the lens of the eye from drying and distorting. Distortion is also known by several names, but the lens will cause us to not see clearly if it is dry, just like a contact lens.

The blink reflex also protects the eye from injury caused by dust or tiny objects. When the lid closes, it sweeps across the eye, removing impurities that cause discomfort.

How long can hamsters go without blinking?

Hamsters can typically go without blinking for 1-2 minutes. Blinking helps to moisten and clean their eyes, so they naturally blink more often than that. If a hamster doesn't blink for an extended period, it may be a sign of a health issue that needs to be addressed by a veterinarian.
