My 3 year old has suffered a corneal abrasion which has healed now but is suffering with a swollen eye lid anslight sensitivity for a few month. I can't take him back to doctors as he is so distraught from all of this but just want to know if any condition can be normal to have a swollen eye for this time

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that your three year old son is having swollen eyelid with light sensitivity to light.
Since the child was treated for corneal abrasion, these symptoms indicate that corneal abrasion is not healed and it requires treatment.
Hence I advice you to get ophthalmologist opinion and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
