10 Month Baby, Red Mark On White Of Eye, Got Scratched. Anything To Worry?
I think my 10 month old scratched her eye earlier today. i was changing her and she grabbed the aquaphor botle out of my hands, lost grip, and the rough edge of the bottle hit her eye. She has a red mark on the white of her eye and it looks like a thin layer of mucus has covered the scratch. She cried when it happend for 30 seconds and doesnt seem bothred by it. Should I be worried and see her dr?

Thanks for the question. Red mark on white of eye is conjuctival hemorrhage due to injury but if faint in colour and no watering of eyes & stickiness, you may ignore. But if symptoms increase, please contact opthalmologist
