Eye pain

About a month ago my dd was crying because she said her eye hurt. I thought something just got in her eye. Since then a few times she has said her eye hurts as well as at school too. Tonight she said her eye hurts again and she had pain in her teeth and chin too. She's 5 and sometimes grinds her teeth at night.

We've got an appointment with the ENT specialist at hospital due to her enlarged tonsils causing her issues at night. I'll obviously mention this too. The appointment is at the end of April but would you try and see the GP earlier than this?

Maybe get her eyes tested and mention it then? They can look abit more at the back of her eye. As for teeth and chin, could that be a new tooth coming or wobbly tooth maybe???

She had her eyes tested at school and no issues but I guess they wouldn't have used that machine to look into her eye. She's only 5 so no wobbly teeth.

She said her other eye hurt in the night so I don't know what to think. I'm going to monitor it and book the dentist on Monday. I think it's related to her teeth grinding tbh.
