7 month old who had pink eye 3 months ago. was given antibiotic eye drops. redness is gone and discharge crystallized then went away for awhile. The discharge is back. white,yellow or green in color. when it is white in color you will see it go across eye to inner corner. eyes r watery and itchy. There is no redness or swelling. No other health problems. Just the eyes. What is it and how do i get rid of it? (Hopefully a natural solution)

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Understand your predicament. But please post this query in the appropriate forum, you will get a better feedback.

Looks like she had an attack of Conjunctivitis, which has resolved. But sometimes there could be an infection of the lacrimal sac (Dacryocystitis), the sac from where the tears drain into the nose. This persisting infection can cause discharge, watering and itchiness of the eyes.

Please discuss this with your doctor am sure he will provide further assistance.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

For help with natural solutions please see the Alternative Therapies forum, as they are very knowledgeable in that area.

As far as "What is it?" goes...green and yellow are signs of infection. It could be stemming from babe's sinuses. Could also be caused by allergies.
She needs to be seen by a doctor or pediatrician for an accurate diagnoses.
