Redness In Corner Of Left Eye Of My Baby

by Mrinalini
(India)

My baby is eight and a half months old.

For the past one week, the corner of her left eye is red in color.

We went to the pead and he suggested Ciplox to be applied for 5 days - 5 drops a day.

We have applied it for two days.

It's slightly reduced.

What could this be?

Should we consult a Opthalmologist or should we wait for five complete days to see whether it goes off.

Any suggestions would be greatly helpful.

Thanks in advance
First time mom

Redness in Corner of Eye
by: Baby Help Line

She should be fine just keep applying her medicine. Her tear duct in her left eye probably got a little infected. It can be caused from a cold or any kind of debris that gets into the eye. If you finish the medication and her eye is no better or gets red again then take her right back to the doctor. Hope she feels better soon.

Redness in the Eye
by: Anonymous

Thanks a lot for your advice.

We consulted an ophthalmologist and he said it was a minor allergy and suggested eye drops for ten days.

Now she seems to be okay.

For the past 6 days we have applied the drops, and we have to do it for four more days.

The redness is slightly present.

Will everything of it go away by ten days?
