Hi dr, my dog got loose yesterday in the yard. my son was chasing the dog and and unknown insect bit his eye. it was swollen on the bottom lid andhurt?

Watch : Keep the area clean and apply ointment not inside the eye unless the label says so. Also use cool compresses. I wonder if it was a bee or hornet? The swelling should decrease in 2-3 days. If it isn't looking better, see his doctor. All the best.
