Question

What causes red and swollen eyes in children?

Answer

Red and swollen eyes in children may be caused by conjunctivitis, and it is recommended to undergo an ophthalmic examination and treatment. If there are symptoms of swelling and pain, medical attention should be sought promptly. Additionally, attention should be given to nutritional supplements, moderate activity and rest, and maintaining a light diet. At the same time, routine blood tests and bacterial culture of ocular secretions should be conducted to determine the cause and carry out corresponding anti-inflammatory treatment. In severe cases, hospitalization may be required. In the event of an eye injury, active anti-inflammatory treatment should be initiated, and the condition should be closely monitored.
