My little nephew had something similar on his eyelids recently and it looked so uncomfortable. My sister didn't use any home remedies because the eyes are too sensitive. She took him straight to the pediatrician, which is honestly the safest option.
Eyelids are super delicate yaar, actually you shouldn't put any normal eczema creams there. Even baby lotions can irritate their tiny eyes. Better to consult your pediatrician immediately before applying anything.
Look, this is a baby's eye area we are talking about, so absolutely no experiments or home remedies. Take the baby to a good pediatrician or dermatologist today. Only use what they prescribe under their guidance.
When my daughter had mild dryness near her eyes, the doctor told us to only use a damp, clean cotton ball to gently wipe the area. We did not apply any home remedies or over-the-counter creams. I would highly suggest consulting your doctor first.
My son had eyelid eczema when he was six months old. Our pediatrician prescribed a very specific, mild eye-safe ointment. We also made sure to wash all his bedding and our clothes in a completely fragrance-free baby detergent.
