Thank you for submitting your question regarding Ziek. It is difficult to say without seeing a picture. If you want to submit your question again with a picture, you are welcome to do so. If the eye is red, has yellow or green discharge or he is squinting, these are some indications to be seen soon. I hope this information helps!
