Re: Re: Red or swollen eyes?

[Guest guest]

Hi Sylvester,

My son has this happen a lot actually. Our pediatric

ophthalmologist gave us some prescription eye drops

that are very good in reducing irritation or allergy

responses. Our son had a YV canthoplasty and

frontalis slings at 3 yrs old. He does not blink

automatically now (although he can close his eyes when

he wants to). Our doctor felt he is more prone to

irritation because he does not have the blink reflex

to keep irritations out of his eyes. Now that he is

four years old he tells me when his eyes feel " itchy "

and can ask for his drops.
