Generally eye swelling in newborn babies are due to blockage of a small duct or a tube that connects the eye to the interior of the nose. This condition resolves spontaneously most of the time
Next Steps
Gentle massage in the area between the eye and nose two to three times a day is good
Health Tips
If there is swelling in the nose region or the condition prolongs please see a doctor
