Question

The mercury from the thermometer accidentally fell into the child’s eye, and at first, the eye didn’t turn red. Later, when I went to the hospital, the doctor used tweezers to remove the mercury, and there was some redness around the white of the eye corner.

Answer

Hello, after such a disturbance to your baby’s eyes, there may be some infection and a regional congestion with redness may appear. You can give your baby a slightly lower dose of azithromycin eye drops. Also, you can apply a cold compress. It should get better in one or two days.
