Is the child's swollen eyes a sign of kidney disease in children?

Patient's question:

This morning when I called my child to get up, I noticed that their eyes were very swollen, and after a while, the swelling didn't go down. Could this be child nephritis? I'm really worried.

Doctor's answer:

This may not necessarily be pediatric nephritis. Proper diagnosis and analysis can determine the true cause or etiology of the eye swelling. Children who stay up late at night and get insufficient sleep are prone to eye swelling upon waking up in the morning. Some children may experience eye puffiness due to stress or difficulty falling asleep at night.
