My child has inflamed eyes

With an eye infection, the whites of the eyes are red. The membrane on the eye is inflamed. There may also be mucus in the eye. Usually this is not a problem. Treatment is often not necessary. The eye infection almost always goes away on its own within 1 to 2 weeks.

For reliable information about an eye infection in children , first check thuisarts.nl.

Can’t wait until the next day? Then call the GP Emergency Station.
