Completely normal eye

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX...I have just seen the images of your son' eyes. They are perfectly normal. the redness you are seeing at the corners are completely normal and physiological.

DO NOT WORRY AT ALL. THIS IS NOT INFECTION AS YOU ARE FEARING.

I appreciate your gesture of uploading the photos and I was lucky enough while browsing the net to stumble upon your case. I was also happy in our last conversation when you replied that on my advice you stopped antibiotic eye drops (Ciplox) and he was getting better.
