A. You should get a check with an ophthalmologist without a physical assessment no clarity can be provided to you so the doctor has to examine and then only they can help you with anything so please consult an ophthalmologist for a physical assessment

A. Basically black colour is due due to the iron supplement that you are giving to the child so this is completely normal there is absolutely no problem in that because the colour for the motion can change for a child an adult went out on Iron supplement
