  Gentle Cleaning to newborn’s eyes:

Use a clean, damp cloth to gently wipe away any discharge from the baby’s eyes. Use a separate section of the cloth for each eye to prevent the spread of any infection.

• Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

Avoid using harsh soaps or shampoos near the baby’s eyes, as they can cause irritation. When giving your baby a bath, use mild baby shampoo and make sure to keep the eyes protected.

• Protection newborn’s eyes from UV Rays:

When taking your baby outdoors, ensure they are wearing a wide-brimmed hat and are shielded from direct sunlight.

• Regular Check-ups:

Schedule regular appointments with a pediatrician or an eye care professional. They can assess your baby’s eye health and address any concerns you may have.

• Avoid Smoke Exposure to newborn’s eyes:

Keep your baby away from smoke and other pollutants, as they can cause eye irritation and other health issues. By following these guidelines and being proactive in your baby’s eye health, you can contribute significantly to their overall well-being and ensure a bright and clear vision for their future. If you need an eye assessment for your newborn, please have a visit to Prima Medical Center Saigon.
