My daughter is 3 years old. Every morning she could not able to open her eyes due to stickyness. We have showed to many doctors. Some of them says that its an allergy and will last for 2 to 3 years. Some are givign some eye drops but no use. If we take her out in a quite airy wheather, her eyes get red. I would like to have your valuable suggestion on this.
Hi, Is she having any atomic manifestations like eczema or wheezing? Any chronic itching or stuffiness of nose? Are the eyes itchy and watering throughout the day, apart from morning hours? Also, any seasonal variations for the same complaints? Conditions to be ruled out are allergic conjunctivitis or obstruction of naso-lacrymal ducts and chronic blepharitis. If the there are purulent discharge along with stickiness, taking an eye swab in the morning for examination can detect any organisms colonized, which then can be cleared with proper antibiotics. Kindly discuss once again with ophthalmologist. Sticking to one doctor during successive visits will help to direct a proper workup. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
