my baby's eyes weep. what can i do to make it stop?




Answers:
It is not uncommon for babies to have a blocked drainage structure of the eye. These will sometimes spontaneously resolve, but not always. In those cases where spontaneous resolution does not occur, a minor surgical procedure can be performed to help the tears drain better. My advice to you is to visit an optometrist or ophthalmologist to have your baby looked at.

Other Answers:
My son, who is 3 months old, has the same problem. His pediatrician said it usually resolves itself, it's due to their tear ducts being so small and they just overflow. He also said that if it doesn't resolve itself by the time he's 8 months, he send him to a specialist to have it taken care of.
