Patient's question:
A newborn over 50 days old often has tears in the left eye. They visited an ophthalmology hospital and were advised to buy some eye drops from a pharmacy. Later, they went to a maternal and child hospital, where they were prescribed a single bottle of eye drops called "Recombinant Human Interferon."Doctor's answer:
Preventive measures include maintaining good eye hygiene, avoiding rubbing your eyes randomly, and eating less spicy and irritating foods. If symptoms occur, seek medical attention promptly. Conservative treatment can be initially adopted, such as oral or local use of appropriate antibiotics combined with local warm compresses. If the condition does not improve or worsens with local abscess formation, surgical treatment may be necessary.
