    DD2 has something wrong with her eye

    DD2 is 2 years old and yesterday evening i noticed her eye looked red so i had a closer look and there appears to be a lump/pimple type of thing on her eyeball, DH is taking her to the drs tonight but does anyone know what it could be?
    she hasnt complained about it or it doesnt appear she is even aware of it

    A sty is like a pimple kind of thing on the eye lid. If its on her eye ball itself I doubt thats what it'd be. Sty's kinda hurt. ( have one )
    I don't know, but hope its nothing major

    It's a little pimple on the eyelid. I used to get them as a kid too.

    On the eyeball doesn't sound good. IS she in pain or anything?

    girltwin had this a few months ago, I took her to the doctor but he said it was just irritated by a piece of grit, and it would go away on it's own. It never caused her any pain and was gone within 3 days.

    Worth getting it checked just in case though.
