DD2 10m had a bloodshot, tearey eye with a bit of gunk on Monday evening. The other eye was a bit pink but otherwise ok. She also has a cold and had a stomach bug at the weekend - joy!
We took her to the Doctors and we were given drops, 4 times a day for 7 days.
I know that it's only been 2 days of treatment but it's got much worse. Both eyes are red, sore, full of gunk (every 5 mins) and she has red circles under her eyes.
Is this normal? Should the drops have kicked in by now?
My worry is that she may be allergic to the drops and that I'm making her worse.
I know I'm probably worrying over nothing but either reassurance or a firm 'get a grip' is needed please!
TIA
