Question

My child has been born recently and always has watery eyes, and they often cry. Is pediatric mydriasis harmful?

Answer

There can be some harm in having two mydriasis sessions within five days for children. For early myopia, glasses can be worn for correction, and you can have an eye examination at an ophthalmology clinic. If the myopia is severe, you may consider laser eye surgery; pay attention to postoperative care. Avoid eating irritating food and try to avoid overusing the eyes as much as possible.
