Does anyone know of specific references that show that using expressed 
breastmilk is evidenced based as a therapeutic measure for treating neonates 
with sticky eyes? My infection control officer has not found anything to justify 
the practice. There are many references about the anti infective properties of 
breastmilk but not about the practice. Thank you for assistance.
