Redness spreading to both eyes in a baby may suggest an infection or irritation that needs reassessment, and it may not be responding to the current drops. Continue using the medicine only if advised and keep the eyes clean with gentle wiping using clean water. Avoid touching or rubbing the eyes and maintain proper hygiene to prevent spread. It is best to consult the doctor again promptly for re evaluation and possible change in treatment.
