You can get gel from any chemist
Keep wiping her eyes with luke warm wateron cotton wool changing it for each eye

Ignore the left to right thing

Yes, thanks, I'll give that all a go. We all have our own towels thankfully, so that shouldn't be an issue. I just don't know how she's got it.
Thank you for your help.

My dd got it from nursery touching a toy that a child had touched earlier
It is really common but very unpleasant

Mine hasn't been anywhere...It started yesterday, but can't for the life of me think of the starting block for it. Very odd. I appreciate your replies though. Thank you.
