Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are quite commonly seen in children. Most often multiple episodes could be due to unrelated infections. But anatomical abberations often predispose to UTIs and need to be excluded. A DMSA scan will help in finding it out.
Swelling of the eyes could be due to lack of proteins in the blood. It could arise if the child is not feeding well. But a more important condition related to protein loss could be a condition called nephrotic syndrome which could have some connection to the UTI. Please visit a pediatrician and get the child evaluated.
