My Daughter Has Conjunctivitis, Eye Discharge, Redness, Soreness, Yellowish Spots On Eyeballs. Using Counter Eye Cream. Advise?

My 2year daughter and has had conjunctivitis that I have been treating with over the counter eye cream for the last 2days. The left eye seems to be getting better but still has some dischage and redness, but the right eye still looks quite sore and I have noticed two yellowish spots on her eye ball. Was just wondering if you could give me any advice on what they could be? Many thanks a worried mum.

Hi

Thanks for your query.

Your child is having conjunctivitis which could be viral or bacterial in nature .

I suggest you not to do any self medication and get your child evaluated by doctor for proper

management as she may need topical and oral medication.

Clean her eyes very gently with cotton sterilized in boiled water 2 to 3 times a day.

Wishing your child good health.

God bless...
