My son's eye has been discharging sticky, greenish mucus, and his lower eyelid is constantly filled with it. We've been using homeopathy medicine for a year now, but there's been no improvement. I'm starting to get really worried. What kind of treatment should we consider next? Could you please help us figure out what to do?
