Question
My child has had cherry eye for over two weeks. Can herbal medicine cure it?
Answer
If the cherry eye is not too large, one can try taking some herbal medicine with clear heat and detoxify (clear heat and detoxify) effects. If the cherry eye is larger, surgery to remove it should be considered, as long-term compression of the eye may lead to astigmatism and increase the risk of purulent infection. Western medical treatment typically includes cold compresses and the use of symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication.
