Is it normal for babies to have eye droppings after a fever?

<> baby fever is a common occurrence. When the baby has a fever, many parents will find that the baby's eye droppings have increased, and many parents will be very nervous, not knowing whether the fever will cause problems with the baby's eyes, and even worry that the fever will affect the function of the eyes. So, why do babies have fever and eye droppings?

First of all, let's take a look at how the eye feces come out, there is a thing called meibomian gland in our human eyelids, which will secrete a lot of oil, which will be evenly applied to the eyes when people are awake, which can protect the eyes well, but when people are asleep, the meibomian glands will continue to secrete oil, and the eyes are in an inactive state, so the oil will mix with tears and dust in the air to form eye droppings.

When the baby has a fever, the baby's meibomian gland secretes oil very vigorously, and the baby's eyes are prone to eye feces, which is caused by fever and caused by the exuberant secretion of meibomian glands.

If the baby has a lot of fever and eye droppings, parents can put a wet towel on the baby's eyes, which can soften the eye droppings, and then use a cotton swab to clean up the baby's eye droppings.

It is a common situation for babies to have cold eye feces, and such a situation will not affect the health of the eyes, so parents do not need to be overly nervous and do a good job of cleaning.
