Why does my newborn baby have ointment in his eyes and how long will this ointment in my newborns eyes blur his vision?

My newborns baby's eye is puffy from delivery and gooey with ointment. What is the reason for this ointment? #newborn #week1 #baby

It could just be a blocked tear duct which is common among newborns and will go away between 4-6 months.

Newborn baby's eyes are bloodshot red

Why do the whites of my new born baby's eyes look so bloodshot? Is this harmful? #newborn #week1 #baby #justborn

I saw some information about this on article.. sharing with you "this occurs when blood leaks under the covering of the eyeball due to the trauma of delivery. It's a harmless condition similar to a skin bruise that goes away after several days"
