Patient's question:
Expert,My daughter is 8 months old. Since she was over 4 months, she has had a lot of red blood vessels in her eyes. Sometimes she rubs her eyes, especially when feeding. At 7 months, we visited an ophthalmologist, who said it was an allergy and prescribed 2 bottles of imported eye drops, saying that domestic eye drops might have side effects. However, I noticed that the instructions for those eye drops also listed many side effects, so I didn’t dare to buy and use them. Later, we consulted a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who said it was nothing serious and suggested using breast milk to drop into her eyes. We have been doing this for many days, but there has been no improvement. They also mentioned that overnight tea water can help remove red blood vessels.
Could you please tell me if breast milk or overnight tea water can really remove red blood vessels? For a baby in this condition, what kind of eye drops would be suitable? Thank you!!!
