What eye drops are safe to use for a 5-year-old girl who has had a red eye with no irritation for two days, after recently receiving an Avil 10mg injection for a skin allergy?
Since she has no irritation, pain, or discharge, it might be a mild, self-limiting issue. Because she recently received an antihistamine injection (pheniramine, the generic for Avil), allergic causes are already being addressed. The safest option right now is to use preservative-free artificial tears (lubricating eye drops) to keep her eye moist. Please avoid over-the-counter redness-relief drops, as they are not recommended for young children. If she develops any pain, light sensitivity, discharge, or if the redness doesn't improve in a few days, please have her evaluated by a pediatrician.
