Hi doc, My son is approx 5 years old ( 57 months ). His left  eyelids got sticky and had some swelling below the eyes, when he woke up in the morning. It has been happening for three days. He has some watery eyes for the whole day. Please suggest what could be the issue??? Suggest some eye drop also which can help to cure this problem.
