Swollen eyes in children are usually caused by mechanical irritation such as eye rubbing, allergy or infection.
Rubbing the eyes, bumping and other mechanical stimulation of the soft tissues of the child’s eyes will easily lead to edema of the eyelids, which may also be accompanied by subcutaneous bruising, pain and other symptoms.
Allergic reactions can occur after exposure to allergens such as pollen, hair, and willow flakes, resulting in swelling of the eyelids, which may be accompanied by itchy eyelids and other symptoms.
If the child does not pay attention to eye hygiene and infection occurs, such as blepharitis, blepharitis, etc., under the stimulation of inflammation, the patient may also develop eyelid edema, conjunctival congestion, photophobia, tearing and other uncomfortable symptoms.
It is recommended that children with significant eyelid swelling should be seen promptly for evaluation of their condition and treatment in accordance with medical advice.
