Dear Patient,

Is the eyeball red or the skin outside red? It can be an eye infection or a bug bite. Give her 1.5ml syrup zyrtec at night for 2 days. If it doesnt improve its most probably an infection. Please use three small pieces of cotton and soak them in distilled water, with a single firm sweep clean the outside of the eye once with each piece when she wakes up. Cut your nails and the babies nail short. Maintain hygeine, keep her face clean. In case the eyeball is red and not the skin or if things dont improve- kindly see a specialist urgently.
