Hello. I just read through your question.
the symptoms you describe sounds like a typical pediatric viral illness. Fever typically last two to three days, and associated symptoms involving eyes and headaches are very common. I recommend doing your best to control the fever and maintain hydration. If the fever lasts beyond 3 to 4 days or if the symptoms don't completely resolve after 7 days, I recommend consulting with your doctor. No need to run to an emergency room or urgent care
