Question
My three-month-old baby’s eyes have been red and swollen for two months. After seeing a doctor, it was diagnosed as chalazion. I have been using Tobramycin eye drops and ointment, but there has been no improvement.
Answer
After two months of using Tobramycin eye drops and ointment, there has been no improvement, suggesting that it may have turned into a chronic chalazion. It is recommended to try cold compresses on the affected area at this point, three to four times a day, for 10 to 15 minutes each time. After three days of continuous application, if the condition improves, continue with the above methods; if there is no improvement or there is a trend of improvement, it is advised to go to the hospital’s ophthalmology department for further examination and treatment.
