Question
A male baby at 18 days old visited the provincial children’s hospital due to excessive eye boogers. The doctor prescribed Tilybuto eye drops, and the baby has been using them for over 20 days, with the eye boogers disappearing. However, the left eye does not produce tears even when crying, while the right eye has an abundance of tears. What could be the reason for this? How should it be treated? Can it naturally improve by three months? Please advise!
Answer
It is recommended that the parent still go to the hospital for a check-up to rule out the possibility of dacryocystitis.
