Does it mean anything if you can only blink one of your eyes while keeping the other open?

Question:

I can close my right eye and keep the left open, but cant close the left and keep the right open. Also when I smile.. I can only use the muscles to smile much more on the right side. I feel like my left of my face is giving out.

Answers:
Could be Bells Palsy. Better get this checked out. (FYI, it is temporary if it is BP)

Other Answers:
No

get a neuro check
you may have problems with your facial nerve

it means you can wink. congratulations.

Hahaha. It means nothing, just the habit. You need to practice the muscles on both sides equally. Otherwise they are lazy.

When I was a kid, I could not close just one eye, either left or right. But I practice for a while. Now I can do it with left/right eye very easily.

uh,...no
a stroke?

congratulations, you can blink. we're all proud of you. and thx for the points.
