Black_prince [1.1K]
A kind of job where you would have used the blinking response is:
*one example is working in a factory. You would have needed to blink often, in order to keep dust away from your eyes.
*another example is working as a business man or woman. These people often times look into the computer, which causes your eyes to feel more tired which is followed by blinking often during the day.
*a final example is: being an artist. You blink often due to looking into one place and painting small details, and straining your eyes to make a piece perfect.
