Question
The child’s eyes have been watering since birth, and they often cry and fuss. Can pediatric eyelid stones be treated with medication?
Answer
As the child is quite young, it is recommended to continue observing. If the eyelids are frequently inflamed, consult an ophthalmologist to consider surgical removal of the small stones. The surgery is simple and there is no need to worry excessively. Before treatment, it is important to understand the cause to administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. Daily care is also very important; it is suggested to eat less spicy food and more eye-healthy foods.
