Go to the grocery or a drug store and buy the products that they sell for humans who have dry eyes. They make a product that is an ointment type and it works really well. You can use it any time because it is not medicated. Warm some water and use cotton balls to wipe your baby's eyes. Wipe from the nose outward and DO NOT GO BACK OVER THE EYE WITH THE SAME COTTON BALL!! THROW AWAY THE BALL AND USE A FRESH WET ONE EVERY SWIPE. DRY THE EYES THE SAME WAY AND PUT THE TEAR SUBSTITUTE ON THE EYES. CAREFUL not TO TOUCH THE EYEBALL. Always wash your hands before and after you treat your baby..and do not rub your face..
I am sorry-I got right into telling you how to take care of his eyes and forgot to say that I am sorry to hear he is not well...He will be better soon.. |
