is it bad to excessively blink the eye

will excessive blinking of the eyes affect my eyes health in anyway? Because i find it difficult to unconsciously blink my eye while working at my computer which is causing my eye tearing and dry eyes. I have decided to consciously blink my eye when i am working on the computer.

Another problem i have with my eyes is that i noticed that my tear duct is of different sizes. My left tear duct is bigger that my right tear duct. Is this a serious problem?
