2. Viral infections: viral infections in the baby’s eyes, causing hemorrhagic conjunctivitis and other diseases, under the stimulation of inflammation, the child may appear eye pain, photophobia, foreign body sensation, tearing, subconjunctival hemorrhage in the form of flakes, eyelid edema and other discomforts.
3. Inverted eyelashes: children with inverted eyelashes may experience subconjunctival hemorrhage, eye stinging and other discomforts due to the abnormal growth direction of the eyelashes and the irritation of the eye surface tissues.
