Origin:
The word "blinkard" originated in the early 15th century as a variant of "blinkerd," which is derived from the verb "blink" (v.), meaning to close and open the eyes rapidly. The term was originally used to describe people who had impaired eyesight or who blinked excessively due to a condition such as blepharitis. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include individuals who were shortsighted, weak, or timid.
