Hello Wise Friends, one of the moms in my LLL group called this evening. Seems her 3 year old's hand accidentally intersected with her eye over the weekend. Mom can barely see; having lots of pain, too. She is currently nursing an 8- month old son. The eye docs are concerned with her continuing to breastfeed while using the following eye-drops: a. wetting drops b. antibiotic drops c. Xibrom (generic name is bromfenac, I believe) d. Econopred Plus, which is a steroid/anti-inflammatory combo. My Hale is at the office unfortunately. Have any of you worked with a mom who'd experienced something of this nature? I just can't imagine things being used in the eyes as potentially harmful to that baby. She's supposed to use these med for 3-5 days. Many thanks for any info you can share! Jenny Z.
