A member asked:

My 4 year old son has been on tobacco for a week and eye is still red and squinty. should i take him back to the doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unusual: Tobacco packs can help some localized swelling but never heard for use on eyes. Pink eye can be caused by many things but I always think viruses if they last for a long time. I would definitely get back into your MDs office for a recheck. There are a few rare infections of the eye that can lead to serious problems.
