Slightly bloodshot eyes in newborns may be due to squeezed eyeballs, neonatal conjunctivitis and blood clotting disorders. 1. Squeezing of the eyeballs: Especially for newborns born in normal delivery, the head will be squeezed when passing through the mother’s birth canal, which may cause some pressure on the eyeballs, thus leading to slight congestion of the eyes. 2. Neonatal conjunctivitis: If the eyes of a newborn are contaminated with secretions from the birth canal as it passes through the mother’s birth canal during labor, neonatal conjunctivitis may result. The child will have conjunctival congestion, edema, eyelid swelling, increased secretion and other clinical manifestations. 3. Coagulation dysfunction: if the newborn’s body coagulation dysfunction, when the newborn’s eyes are stimulated by the outside world, the capillaries in the eyes will easily rupture and bleed, resulting in newborn’s eyes slightly congested. If the newborn’s eyes are slightly congested, parents should pay attention to it and communicate with the doctor in time to find out the cause.
