My son has allergy in eye for which he is recommended fucidin eye drops.. he doesn't have conjunctivitis.. are these drops safe for my 16 month old?

Fucidin: Fucidin drops are an antibiotic that would only work for bacterial conjunctivitis . It would not help with allergies. It is generally used for 2 years and older.
