How to use "Squint" in context?
Squinting can be a result of tired eyes, bright light, or dust. When the eyes are tired, they are less able to relax and widen. This can cause the muscles in the upper eyelid to contract, which in turn produces what is called a squint. Bright light can also cause squinting because it makes the eyes work harder to see. Dust can cause squinting because it accumulates in the eye and causes the pupil to enlarged.
