What can cause swelling in the upper eyelid of my 8 month old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blocked tear duct: There are a few causes. It may be a blocked tear duct causing swelling in the lacrimal gland (the tear gland) or a stye (inflamed hair follicle in the eyelid). See a doctor to be sure what the problem might be.
