Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The decay involving multiple teeth can be a rampant caries secondary to improper maintainence of the oral hygiene and improper diet. The running nose and eye sight is not related to the teeth. Consult a pediatric dental surgeon and get the teeth filled. For the nose and eyes consult a ENT and ophthalmologist and take opinion.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.

First of all there is no correlation between the two. If cavities are incipient your pedodontist would advise you on topical fluoride application and periodic checkups. You can also ask your pefodontist for pit and fissure sealents.
