Doctor's answer:

The baby's eyes have eye discharge, which is a sign of internal heat. It's important to give the baby more water. If the baby is formula-fed, you can use a cooling formula companion to help clear the heat. For breastfeeding mothers, pay attention to a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and eat more fruits! Regarding the situation you mentioned, eye drops like levofloxacin can also be used. However, in your daily life, it's important to clean the baby's eye discharge regularly. Don't overdo it—don't clean too much or not at all. Also, give the baby more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, pears, and bananas. Make sure the bananas are ripe. Lastly, make sure the baby isn't dressed too warmly.
