Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.

It could be a viral illness and I suggest her you give her plenty of oral fluids and you can treat fever with Paracetamol at 15mg/kg/dose every 4-6th hourly if fever is > 100F. For redness in the eyes you can wash them frequently with clean cold water.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
