#AskTheExpert hello doctor jus wanted to ask a quick question about my 8month old baby.. she is getting eye discharge in her right eye.. is it normal or how I can treat her at home????

A. Parents and caregivers can treat a baby with a blocked tear duct at home by wiping away discharge and gently massaging the area twice a day. A doctor can demonstrate how to do this. Redness, swelling, or soreness in the eye area can indicate an eye infection. Speak to a doctor immediately if an infant has these signs.
