A one year old baby's body is still very fragile. At this time, the baby has gradually gained some autonomy and is also quite mischievous and active. The baby's conjunctiva is fragile and easily susceptible to external virus infections or foreign body stimulation, which can cause eye diseases. Some parents may find that their baby's eyes are red, but after examination, they discover that they have red eye disease. So, what should be done for a one year old baby's red eye disease?
If a baby over one year old has red eye, parents should observe whether the situation is serious. If the condition is severe, they should take the baby to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, because red eye disease is contagious. If left uncontrolled for a long time, it can cause damage to the baby's optic nerve and retina, leading to a decline in the baby's vision.
If the baby's red eye disease is not very serious, then parents don't have to worry too much. If there are eye drops at home, they can give the baby a few drops to relieve it. Furthermore, when some babies have red eyes, they secrete more tears. Therefore, parents should regularly wipe their babies' tears and prevent them from clumping together to avoid severe red eye disease.
There are many types of red eye disease, and some babies have allergic red eye disease. To thoroughly treat the condition, it is necessary to find the allergen in order to effectively control the condition. During this period, parents should avoid letting their babies rub their eyes with their hands at will to reduce the growth of bacteria.
