Hi, it could be due to kerato conjuntivitis, due to defeciency of vitamin A due to mal absorption, or non intake of the foods containing vit A . I advise you to consult an ophthalmic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I advise you to take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine rich foods besides the treatment, with drugs.
Thank you.
