Hi, my 3 year old boy has woken up with really goopy eyes for the past two days. There is no redness or irritation and he has no cold symptoms at all. I will take a warm wash cloth and clear the gunk and maybe have to repeat two or three more times throughout the day. Any ideas?
Hello It seems from the history that your 3 year old boy is having goopy eyes. This indicates infection of the eyes in the form of acute conjunctivitis or acute dacryocystitis. The treatment is by the use of antibiotic eye drops. Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
