    Default Clogged Tear Duct?

    Some of you may remember my post a while back about my son's eye, and how our pediatrition believed it to be a clogged tear duct while I thought it could be allergies. He turned 1 on the 16th, and the eye was still not getting better. Well, we finally found a new home for Molly, our cat, and less than 24 hours later his eye is completely clear. No more goopiness or crusties, and his eyelashes are no longer stuck together. So given this new development is your opinion that this is coincidence, or do you think he has allergies?

    Sounds like an allergy to me. My husband is allergic to cats and his eyes get really watery and gross. Along with sneezing. We don't have a cat because of this, and he does just fine. I hope it stays gone. Damen had a clogged tear duct when he was newborn, I hated those gooey crusties.

    No, I didn't research allergies. This was just pure instinct making me think allergies. On top of that allergies run amuck in both of our family trees, but now I'll probably research this topic.

    Tequila, HA, I'll have to remember that one..........
