Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
I agree with your instinct that the redness and bumps are a result of the virus. I do not believe this has anything to do with her diabetes. Keep the eyes clean, and the issue will resolve on its own. If the symptoms persist for more than one week, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
