Question
My baby is 23 months old. This morning, after waking up, he had a lot of dried-up eye discharge. After cleaning it, it appeared again in the corner of his eye, and it’s that kind of moist, pale yellow color. It happened several times this morning. Could it be due to a fire?"
Answer
When a child is two years old, excessive eye discharge may occur. It is recommended to let the baby drink some chilled Sydney water or other fruit juices, and to drink more water. The fruit juice should be diluted with water. A light diet should also be given to the child daily, and the child should be discouraged from rubbing his eyes to prevent inflammation.
